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.
