THE PAST:
Bandgi hamne chhod di hai Faraz
Kya Karen jab log Khuda ho jaye
Shhhhhh!!!! I am seriously done with this life…all this work, M TIRED!!
Recently, I changed everything in my life…Redecorated my home, ordered all new
and shiny stuff and changed my look as well. And I did it all by myself. The
beauty of it all is I have not asked anyone for opinion. It’s liberating if you
ask me. Obstinacy pays!!
As I revel in the joy of my new life, a few ghosts from the past still make
me upset. I am so scared to trust again, love again, become whole again. There
is this huge hole in my heart where I had harboured wishes, dreams and
sometimes love. Yet in the back of my mind, I know I am a very strong woman. I
am perfectly capable of overcoming everything. I know that and yet…I can’t help
but think people perceive me as unfeeling and cold. So soon after everything
happened, I am expected to pick up the pieces and forget everything. People
take ages to overcome things like this. Not that I am not trying. Plus everyone
reminds me of how I am so well-endowed that mundane things like a damaged soul
cannot shake me. Duh! If only they knew…
THE PRESENT:
Dil ko apni bhi khabar na lage
Koi achha bhi is qadar na lage
Yesterday you asked me what is so special about you. You are a fairly
ordinary person. Look closely…Strength, resolve, determination, overcoming
struggles, fighting the demons in your heart and emerging victorious and yes
being the underdog. All are fairly lovable traits. Also the fact that you have
a higher purpose in life…
What more could I have asked for? A little attention…Some appreciation…to
have and to hold, in sickness or health, for rich or poor, as long as we both
shall live. Plus the right to call you my own.
