In places where butterflies glow
Glowing with their attractive features,  
Though many they may be, different they seem.  
But to take one away is a scar we already carry,  
Yet still seek to understand.

To you, my heart,,sweet as you are,  
You're also a mystery,  
The kind that pulls me closer  
And glues me to you.

I want a story ,one that keeps us smiling,  
Through sorrow, joy, and into old age, if we're lucky.  
But you take most pages,
Does that mean you prefer me in your heart,  
More than just on paper?

Sometimes I wonder, how crazy you make me feel,  
Yet I still give you my heart.  
I may allow you to pierce it,
Sometimes it may bleed,
But still, I’ll always choose you.


In a burning ground,  
Let me carry you in my arms.  
In your silence,  
Let me fill it with words of comfort.  
You deserve love,
And from me, I’d carry a mountain for you.

Only that my arms are too short to wrap it all at once.  
But my heart is wealthy,
And I can share it all with you.
I’m running dry of words…
Always choose to love ,for it's better the pain of love than pain of hate.
This is something new
Thought this feeling was one I knew
Inside my heart she has staged a coup
yes, I do love you
'you' rhymes perfectly as i write through
The sky suddenly feels more blue
your picture inside my head nailed with glue
i can just make more out of the view
seeing new stars a few
this is definitely something new.....
This is something straight from my heart
Ishq Jab ** Khushboo Se Pur,
To Zarra Ban Jaaye Ayeenah-e-Noor.

Na Jaam Chahiye, Na Mai Ka Sabab,
Gul Hi Hai Raaz — Aur Nasha Hai Adab.

For love, when laced in scent so pure,
Turns even dust to light’s allure.

No wine, no glass, no tavern wall—
The rose alone can make one fall.

So let the lovers understand:
The wasp that kissed her thorned hand,
Did not return the way he came—
He left his name, and bore her flame.

I am dying to be by you, at your bedside
Mon amour, I yearn every second to be by your side
To soothe the pain, to give you a good massage
To mesmerize you and to send the right message
To your body, to your soul and to your enduring heart
Darling, going forward, you and I should never be apart.

I am dying to be with you at night and day
Throughout your rehabilitation and your stay
At any medical facilities. I miss you very bad
I miss you all the time. I am both sad and mad
That I am not with you right now and today
I’m craving and dying to be by your side right away.

I will see you soon. I will be with you all the time
I will be the sweet healer who will happily rhyme
For you. I had been waiting for the perfect occasion
To come. I am eager to see you smile and laugh again
I am dying to be sitting and standing at your bed side
Sweetheart, I miss you like a sad lover, like a poor child.

May this month bring the peace
the past months could never offer—

the unsaid farewells of January
the silent quitting of February
the letting go of March
the acceptance of April
the rediscovery of May
the yearning of June
the uncertainty of July
and the spiraling of August.

May what remains of this year
be written in stardust
and quiet miracles.
2025

whispered like a silent prayer to the months ahead
but we're back to square one, my love
and i'm really tired
⩇⩇:⩇⩇
feeling alone in a crowded
room and then I found you
two people hand and hand
fighting the powers that be
A lone flame become stronger,
you are my one and only, the
light at the end of my tunnel,
and I hope you'll be the
death of me.
