अब खतों के जल्द जवाब नहीं आते,
पता नहीं क्या बदल गया है?
पता या लोग?

अब दरिया में वो सैलाब नहीं आते,
पता नहीं क्या बदल गया है?
बहाव या ग़हराव?

अब रातों में वो ख्वाब नहीं आते,
पता नहीं क्या बदल गया है?
लगाव या तनाव?

अब खैरियत के तलबदार नहीं आते,
पता नहीं क्या बदल गया है?
झुकाव या चुनाव?

चाँद से वो ज्वार नहीं आते,
पता नहीं क्या बदल गया है?
आफ़ताब या खिंचाव?

अब इस घर में किरायेदार नहीं आते,
पता नहीं क्या बदल गया है?
हिसाब या रखरखाब?

I miss the open road
with foggy streets at 5am,

driving all night long,

only to see the sunrise
in the rear view mirror,

time passes quickly
when chasing the California sun.

I'm not meant
to stay in one place.

I used to love jumping in puddles,
Not a care in the world.
I'd splash as big as I could.
Now I avoid them
Because, well, that's what grown-ups do.

he calls me love when he's mad

his sweetheart when he's sad

he calls me a wilting flower in the sun

a fragile broken piece of glass when we're done.


He brings me blossoms in the spring

in the fall, always nothing

in the winter he leaves my toes cold

but my heart is always a bit too bold

and in the morning it reaches out

and is left to wander home a different route.

I lay in bed, lost at night

not knowing if his love for me is right

for when the morning comes and all is light

I never miss him, or his plight.
im not good at rhyming, im sorry
