Cancer

As I watch you bleed
I die a thousand deaths myself
I wish I could help you
I wish I could keep you


But I keep holding you
As we run out of time
Wishing in every breath
God! I don’t want to lose you now


I cry
Helplessly
A state I could never change
I want to take your pain


You can’t leave me so soon
You can’t leave me in the dark
There is no moon, no sun, no stars
Don’t leave me in the dark


You are everything to me
 My only family
I could never say those until now
That I am helplessly watching you leave


If we go back in time now, lets go back in time
I’ll change all those I could to make you merry
Oh! Breathe again
One more time, please for ever more time


‘God! How could you do this??’
I yell, I scream
I feel a hole in my soul
A cut in my throat
A tear in my heart
Insanity

As I watch you leave…
I die a thousand deaths myself.




You could take with you yourself
But I have you in me, a part of me
That I’ll take with me through life
And to grave. I love you!


-dhira.

A few lines of wisdom

Jab jab dard ka badal chaya,
Jab gam ka saaya lehraya,
Jab aansu palko tak aaya,
Jab yeh tanha dil ghabraya,
humne dil ko yeh samjhaya
dil aakhir tu kyun rota hain
duniya mein yunhi hota hain!

Yeh jo gehre sannate hai
waqt ne sabko hi baante hainn,
thodda gamm hain sabka kissa
thoddi dhup hai sabka hissa,
aankhen teri bekar hi namm hain
har pal ek naya mausam hain
Kyun tu aise pal khota hai,
Dil aakhir tu kyun rota hain!
