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.
