इन साँसों का देखो तुम पागलपन के
आए नहीं इन्हें चैन
मुझसे ये बोली मैं राहों में तेरी
अपने बिछा दूं ये नैन
इन ऊंचे पहाड़ों से जां दे दूंगा मैं
अगर तुम ना आई कहीं
तुम उधर जान उम्मीद मेरी जो तोड़ो
इधर ये जहां छोडू मैं
मौत और ज़िन्दगी, तेरे हाथों में दे दिया रे
इन ऊंचे पहाड़ों से आवाज़ दे दूंगा मैं
अगर तुम ना आई कहीं
तुम उधर जान मझधार में जो डूबो
इधर तेरी नाव बनु मैं
मौज और कश्ती, तेरे हाथों में दे दिया रे ।

To the woman dating the man who broke me

Duniya main naye rang maine bhi dekhein hai

Gaane gungunaye hai, aur uski aankhon ki liye

Poetry maine bhi likhi hai

Par qaash main tumhe bol sakti

Ki muD jao, bhaag jao, chhup jao

Block karo, ignore karo, ghost karo

Par iss aadmi se door raho

Kabhi main bhi nayi thi uski duniya mein

Agar uski dost mujhe ye sab bolti

Toh main bhi wo hee karti jo tum karna chahti ho

Relationship ko dissect - hai na?

Kya hua kab kyun aur kaise

Aur maine kya kiya aur kyun

So that you can tell yourself - this will never happen to you

I hope tum nayi kahaniyan likh sako

Ye aadmi, paer haath soch todkar

Andhere mein chhodne waala hain

Ye wo hai, jo luggage ke saath

Itni bhaari yaadein chhod deta hai

Ki sheher se bhaagne ka khayal bhi nahi aata

Par tumhe, behen, main ye hee bolungi

Tum meri waali galtiyan mat karna

Ek aadmi ke liye khud ka chhota mat karna

Ye all sacrificing female narrative mein mat padna

Main tumhe dekhti hoon

And i want to wrap you in a blanket

I want to give you a bullet list 

Of all the ways he broke my heart

I want to tell you all the stories

That stick to me even now

So that you don’t have such stories

Burning through your skin

I want to shout and tell you

To not make the same mistakes

I want to tell you

How little i felt

How small i became

How shriveled

I want to tell you

He knew what he was doing

And he didn’t stop.

for my only child

Jab bhi koi tumhara haal poochta hai

Jo tumhe kabhi mila tha, chhua tha

Jisko tumse bhi pyaar hua tha

Toh aankhon ki tankiyon ke nal khud hee khul jaate hai

Aur doobne lagti hoon main

Kya kabhi koi samjhega

Tumhe khone ka dard kitna gehra hai

overgrown man-child

the worst of man and child

once upon a time in a forest on Mars

a bear rampaged the land, the trees, and the cars

every monkey, donkey, bee, or bird

that went close to him, was sure to get hurt

his claws were sharp, the bear was strong

nothing got him peace, neither food nor song

once upon a time in the same forest on Mars

the bear fell asleep under the stars

(it was day so they weren't visible!)

the ants trickled over, hundreds, and more

climbed his legs, tummy, entered his nose

they were curious to search, wanted to see

what was it that made the bear so angry

till a shout came from the feet

"it's this thorn here, i bet! you must see"

in an attempt to bring peace to their land

peace to the land and this man

"dum laga ke haisha" they began to shout

and pop, the thorn came out!

now he'll be happy, and we'll be happy too

we'll all get a chance, to start anew

a loud yawn from the corner, as he opened his eyes

the bear was groggy, shocked, and surprised

the ants in a corner, the thorn was out

he went up to the ants, and looked down

how dare you, how dare you remove my thorn

my pain, to me, i hold very dear

it is it that cares for my broken soul

how dare you, how dare you pull it out

how dare you pull it out!

If you were a movie,  I'd be the funny best friend
You don't fall in love with
And every character here knows, the audience can see
We don't belong, you don't belong with me.

But this is my movie,  and you are the best friend
And I am in love,  a little bit,  I think
And the hardest person to break up with
Is the one you never dated

some relationships are back breaking
one works too hard
the other works hard 
to break their back
and i'm terrified of the part of me
that mistook this
for love.

hair

every once in a while i will find a long hair
hidden between the sheets, tangled on a sweater
i will hold it from end to end
and ask - what does it mean to grow up?
i care better, but my skin is dry
it means learning that sometimes the only act
of kindness by some people
is letting me go
grown up, shown up, groan - who cares?
you celebrate me and i don't care
i leave after i find the hair
you can't force me to celebrate 
i can't, i don't want it
i want to sleep
but grown ups say to brush before
and growing up
hurts.
