पल  भर  का  साथ  था , पल  भर  की  थी  बातें , ना  जाने  मैं  कब  वो पल बन  गया , जो  तुमहे  सोचे  बिन  अब  गुज़रता  ही  नही ... - मेधावी

बचकानी   हरकतें  थी  हमारे  वक़्त  के  गाने  थे , बातें  करनी  थी  सभी , पर  किस्से  वही  पुराने  थे ... कहने  को  पेहली  मुलाकात  थी , और  सिर्फ  एक  रात  की  बात  थी , लेकिन  तुमने  छुआ  तो  लगा  जैसे , मैं कुछ पल  को आजाद थी ... - मेधावी

I wish you saw me as the sun and not a brief sunset

Dear Poets, Have you ever been tired ? Tired of getting your heart broken, Tired of accepting disappointments in routine, Tired of non-reciprocating efforts, Tired of unsaid goodbyes, Tired of incomplete letters, Ink Smudged poems in the head, And never ending hopeful heart . Aren't you tired of writing all over again about ideas which are mostly untrue or imaginary, unreal or just a mystery, Things that don't happen in today's world, and if they do, they aren't appreciated enough, But they are written using big words and shorter lines, People read them over again and even mime, But we, the poets, keep writing keeping our hearts on fire, Soul in hell and a face with a smile.

Defining limits was difficult, Falling in love was easier, People talked, I never bothered, You smiled and I gave up. - Medhavi

तुम  में  घर  बनाया  था  मैने , फिर  पता  चला , किराया  ज़िन्दगी  थी | . . - मेधावी

तुम  हमेशा  वो  एहसास  रहोगे , जिसे  शायद  मैने  हद  से  ज़्यादा  मेहसूस  किया ... . . मेधावी

काले  साये   ख्यालों  के  अक्सर  ढूंढ  लाते  हैं  सौ  बहाने  टूट  जाने  के , फिर  तुम  मुस्कुरा  देते  हो  और  मैं  हार  जाती  हूँ .. .

Raat kat-ti nahin aur subha ka intezaar nahin rehta, Aise guzar rahi Hai zindagi jaise aadha chaand daba hua ho shabh ke dhalte ujaalon mein. - Medhavi

New victim. Same plan. New face. Same story. New conversations. Same charm. New name. Same commands. New voice. Same sound. New love. And it all comes around. I want to save her but would she believe ? That he's not in love and she's just a need. New questions. Same answers. New season. Same place. New lies. Same abandonment. New reason. Same betrayal. New smile. And there will soon be just tears. I want to tell her what I went through but would she even listen ? That she will be the third victim and it will be a mistake that she will repent. Or should I let it go? Her life. His life. Her decision. His choice. Her lips. His voice. And Her destiny. His karma. - Medhavi

Kyunki raatein yeh ab bhi lambi Hain, Aur ab gehri hone lagi hai inse dosti, Khayaalon ke manzar chatt-te nahin, Aur baatein dohraati rehti Hain khud ko baar baar... Andheron mein gum lamhe kharch hote huye, Khaamosh lafz gumnaam galiyon mein khote huye, Pata poochna bhi ab bhool chuke Hain kuch kuch, Ki ab nahin dekhte yeh khwaab tootne ke baad baar baar... Hawa chalti bhi hai aur tham bhi jaati hai Kareeb aa Kar, Ki takiye ke gilaaf ki ho gayi dosti namkeen aansu-on se ab, Rijhaata nahin ab koi khayaal nahin Mann ko, Ki maun ho gaye Hain ehsaas bhi dhoke kha kar baar baar...

कई बार तुम्हारे दिये नाम से, खुद को बुलाती हूँ मैं आयीने में, अब भी शर्माती हूँ ऐसे, जैसे तुमसे मुलाकात होने को है.

कुछ ऊलझे हुए हैं धागे, नफरत के , मोह के , तुमसे , गांठ हो तो खोल भी लें , ये तो ज़िन्दगी है जो गुज़रती नही ... . . मेधावी 21/08/18

तुम सामने आओगे जब , यह लाखों बार सोचा है, इंतेजार नही है लेकिन, उम्मीद अभी भी बाकी है. - मिधावी

इन खाली रातों में अक्सर , गूँज उठते हैं अधूरे ख्वाब वही , जिनकी शुरुवात तुमसे थी , और अंत का अब तक मुझे इंतेजार हैं . मेधावी 20/08/18

कहने को हो चुके हैं कितनी बार हम किसी  और के, बस ज़िस्म के आगे कभी बात बढी नही. मेधावी 21/08/18

बस एक दफा  मिलना है तुमसे, ये कहने के लिए, वक़्त गुज़र गया लेकिन, वक़्त गुजरा  नही. - मेधावी 21.08.18

Just a story ... We loved each other. We did. It was all beautiful and rosy in the beginning. Dates, long walks, conversations over coffee, long drives, late night phone calls, early morning excuses to leave home and what not. It felt as if we completed each other. Now after 7-8 years, when I look back and think about it, I still smile but there are things that I'm reminded about that I still haven't forgotten. He was the best thing that ever happened to me but at the same time, the worst too. It took years to understand that sometimes love can be manipulative, manipulative to the extent that it disables your basic sense, instincts and thought process as well. It's funny how he could manipulate me to cut off with all my friends gradually so as to assure that I had nobody to talk to or share with what I was going through. In this society when you are ambitious, intelligent at the same time a woman as well, there are different kinds of struggles that you go through. My pare

You came to my life And became the poetry That made me smile And forget the dark thoughts You became the door That always had enough light Crossing across me giving me strength You became that hope That ignited new dreams Moving through my wide awake sight You became that thought That moved with me Like a perfume that just had it's own kind of smell You became my 3AM reasons to smile That put me to sleep and Made me forget all the pain You are still my poetry But things have changed Now when I read you I find glimpses of my past Abandonment, giving up, Betrayal and indifference. Maybe you haven't changed Maybe nothing has And I'm back Back to square one Writing again a sad story In form of my poetry This time it's you who broke me heart But still, you are my poetry.

You'll be mine one day and I'll be yours, that's how we will at least assume while narrating our story to others.

When I sent him songs over the phone, To listen with me as we were apart, It made no sense to him, but he did. I had to ask for surprises, And request for flowers, Wait for holding hands, And expect hand written letters, But he wanted me to express, What all I wanted, And I wanted him to know, That I was old school. While I was loving him with all my heart, He was busy calculating the pros and cons, Now we don't talk, Now we aren't together. After thinking over nights, Analyzing over days, I realized, I was an emotional fool, And he was just practical.

The night was long, The loneliness was longer, I re-read your 3AM messages, And fell in love with you all over again.

♥️ Today's Reminder ♥️ Self belief is like a magic potion that boosts up your spirits to another level and so is self esteem. Never allow anyone to pull you down below your self resoect, never let anyone cross that line. Sometimes people start believing and accepting that they deserve to be treated badly, that they deserve to be hurt and disrespected. That is when things change, that is when things get complicated and difficult. It's then when we allow others to take advantage of us, bully us and make us feel small. Equality is important but more than that self respect. It is essential and a compulsory trait for any sensible and good human being. So, don't try to force your life in some direction where it is not meant to be. Life is beautiful and it's worth is defined by our actions. Hence, be nice to yourself. Love, Medhavi . . .

🌟Today's Reminder ♥️ Hey guys, so the last few days were a little tough for me. But here I am, back to myself ! Depression can be fought with, only if you are willing to fight. So I decided to get back at it. Today I'm talking about how we let others take advantage of us, how we prioritize them over other things, people, opportunities etc. It's important to give the correct priority to every important person in our lives, but what about those people who don't reciprocate ? What about those people who never put you first ? Life is full of such thankless people who never realize that they also need to give in relationships. These people can be a part of your life in endless ways, best friend, boy friend, partner, colleague, spouse, sibling, boss, employee.. any damn person. All you need to do is definitely not change yourself but categorize such people and don't let their poison make you weaker and finally kill your spirit. Don't let these people take you and you

Today's Reminder ♥️ from my journal 😊 Sorry for the late reminder guys, just going through a tough time. Some days you feel that life has come to a halt and you have nowhere to go. You feel lost and distracted, tired and depressed, and that's when you know that something is really wrong. It's tough nowadays to wake up every morning because there aren't many things to look forward to. Getting pictures clicked or clicking few for the blog becomes difficult at times when your mind is at a dark place. But I know this phase shall pass and things will be fine. Hence, this present journey is important and shall matter later when I'll think about how I lived this rough time. And I want to look back and feel proud... Because it all matters how well you walk through the fire. I want to walk with my head held high and a smile at my face. What about you ? . .

Today's Reminder ♥️ Life has its own ways of creating new thresholds for us. We often think that we might not succeed, we often look at others and feel that they have so much and we have so little and we often think in silence that we don't have it in us anymore. . . It's just the way we talk to ourselves that creates a lot of difference. We need to remember that we have our own super powers, we have everything but we just need to realize things by ourselves. We need to believe that we have our own shine, our own spark, our own fire and our own glow, as @rumi_poetry has defined how there is a sun inside every person, we need to find ours and we need to let it shine from beneath. Just remember, you have it in you, just rediscover yourself and you'll get there. 😊

Today's Reminder ♥️ Many times in life we end up cribbing about things that we didn't get, opportunities that we missed and regrets. But what we generally miss out is the fact that most of these things are those which we don't get to experience because we don't have the courage to fight for it or talk about it. My best friend @somyachatrath taught me this beautiful lesson of life that if you want to do something, say something or try something, do it right then and there... There's no point keeping a regret for life ... There's no point of collecting more "what ifs". What would be the worst that could happen ? When you want to do something and are doubtful about it.. just think about two things : is this illegal ? Would it harm or hurt anyone physically or emotionally ? And if both the answers are "No" then just go for it 😊 I learnt this from her and implied this on my life and since then life has become much simpler. So go and try doing Sal

🎈 I wanted to stay awake, You wanted to sleep, And life went on like that, Now we don't sleep together. 🎈The midnight rain reminds me of you, your broken promises and your love. Untimely. 🎈 When the tea went cold And the conversations didn't end That's the time I'm talking about Nowadays when I don't talk much. 🎈 We were stuck in between maybe and meant to be, And life moved on. 🎈 We planned our lives together, The color of the walls, The long conversations over tea, And then life happened.

Wrote fo saumyaa Yeh libaas saadgi ka Ya hai mausam dilkashi ka Yeh latt zaraa uljhi si Aur adaa zara sulgi si Yeh ungliyaan tumhari Hain bani kalaakaari se Roshan ghar yeh karengi Sau andheron se ladd ke Itne haseen tumhare kadam hain Zameen se aasmaan ka sangam hain Halki tabassum tumhari Jaise goonji koi kilkaari Badde bhole hain yeh do naina Jinmein ojhal si hoti udaasi Utarti huyi zara nami si Phir bhi hain kitni pyaasi Yeh baaliyaan tumhari Ghunghroo si aawaaz wali Choomti huyi tumhare kaanon ko Phir ek sargam si chaayi Baddi fursat se banaaya Khuda ne tumko kisson mein Bhar di usne adaayein saari Tumhare har zarre k hisson mein Ghar se jab nikalnaa Aayeena phir dekh lena Kahin khuda hi na rooth jaaye Khudaa ka shukriya kar denaa..

Talaash Ek arsa guzar gaya khul ke hasse huye. Na jaane kab khushi ke khauff mein rehne ki aadat padd gayi. Ab bhool jaate hain kabhi kabhi ki zinda bhi hain. Phir mehsoos karte hain ki saansein chal toh rahi hain. Hairaani ki hai baat ki sabko yaad mera Wajood hai, par kisi ko dikhta nahin ki in aankhon mein toote khwaabon ke alaawa aur kuch bhi nahin. Udaasi se kar li hai dosti kuch iss tarah ki khushi ke mukhautte ke peeche uska naam o nishaan dikhta nahin. Har subha jab aankhein kholti Hun, toh dhundhlaayi si zindagi dekh khud par hansti hun. Lagta hai chalo ek aur din aaya hai, jee kar dekhte hain. Ummeed toh kab ki chorr di, dhokhe ka bhi ab darr nahin, bas yun hi pehne ek mukkammal insaan ki poshaak, yahi soch phir hum Ghar se nikal jaate hain. Din guzar jaata hai kuch kaam mein, toh kuch aaraam mein, par ummeedein dene ka yeh silsila ab bhi jaari hai. Khud ko khud se ummeed nahin aur har din Na jaane kitni zindagiyon ko samajhne ki koshish main karti Hun. Achcha lagta hai jab

Lines . . . [7/7, 2:31 AM] Medhavi: Your lips taste like honey dipped galaxies where I often lose myself. [7/7, 2:35 AM] Medhavi: Sometimes I feel that you are the muse I always wrote about, But then I see you looking at me and I end up writing even more... [7/7, 2:37 AM] Medhavi: Our poems never rhymed Our song lyrics never synced But still we found our forever In midst of an imperfect love [7/7, 2:43 AM] Medhavi: You opened the door Before I even knocked And I knew you were my forever. [7/7, 2:51 AM] Medhavi: I love the way your fingers reach out to my ears and touch my face and the slide on my shoulders and back... I feel so complete and I feel I'm home. [7/7, 2:53 AM] Medhavi: I was the weed he smoked up every night but never burned his hands while lighting me up. Then soon I realized that I was just an addiction that he gave up one day for the girl he loved.

Kuch yaadon se aazaad hona badda mushkil hota Hai. Cheezon mein, raaston mein, khushbuon mein, mausamon mein, kahin mehfooz Inka wajood, aage badhne se rokta Hai. Kuch mita sakte Hain, aur kuch Hain Jo kabhi khatm hote nahin, Zindagi ke kuch kisson ko khud ko dohraane ki aadat si hoti Hai. Baarish hamesha si Hain, phir bhi bheeni khushbu kisi guzre pal ki hoti Hai; sardi utni hi paddti Hai, phir bhi kohre mein kisi ek chehre ki parchaayi hoti Hai; garmiyon ki shaamein utni hi lambi hoti Hain, phir bhi haathon mein un haathon ki nami dafn rehti Hai; patjhad ki hawaayein utni hi tez hoti Hain, phir bhi unke udte tukdon ki manzilein guzre waqt ki hoti Hain. Khidki se guzarte mausamon ko dekhte Hain Magar, waqt ki sooyi ek arse se wahin atki rehti Hai. Bheed se guzarte waqt jab koi jaana pehchaana sa itr choo jaata Hai, toh ek pal ko Mudd ke dekhne ki hasrat kabhi khatm nahin hoti. Kuch apni pasand ke khaane se alag jab kisine kuch khilaaya tha, kyun har daffa ab bhi pehle nivaale par us

Listening my old playlist with him that night, Was like living my teenage years encapsulated in moments of eternity. With hands clasped tight, And the careless wind blowing, Sitting together and coming closer and closer, Laughing and then a series of sudden realizations, Of being so close to be able to smell each other... A kiss to name it, A moment to define it, And a lifetime to let it go, We were in some Galaxy that night, That had stars that only we could see... Walking together in the dark, Taking off shoes to measure who is taller, Laughing again while holding each other, Was like coming closer to illusions of reality... That night is gone, And here I am, Listening to the same playlist, On repeat.. Remembering him, and smiling alone, Not allowing my mind to forget one bit.

It's insane how I still look at you from a distance and wonder, If the girl you're dating makes you happier than I did.

*I see my end when I think about falling in love with you, but then you smile and I fall again.*

He sings to my heart Without any lyrics And suddenly there is light In the dark corridor of my heart.

I can't remember the lyrics of the song that travelled through us and synced our souls, but I recall the way you came closer and touched me without touching me.

Loving you at your darkest Was never difficult Difficult was to be enough for you to be loved.

रूह में दबी एक आस थी, तेरे ख्याल ने हवा दी, तो मोहब्बत  बन  गयी . - मेधावी

Guzar jaati zindagi Dagaa-on se shikve karte karte Agar tumne phir Mudd ke dekha na hota... Raahein rehti khaffa si Manzilon se Agar tumne haath chor kar phir pakda Na hota... Mohabbat ek lafz hi reh jaata Kaayanaat mein khoye zarre ki tarah Agar tumne zehen mein iska rang Na ghola hota... Medhavi

Aaj meelon dur ho kar bhi, Unse kareebi ka ehsaas hua, Shaan o shaukhat Hai magar, Kuch gareebi ka aaghaaz hua, Unhe chor aaye thhe hum barson pehle, Is ek khwaab ka peecha karte huye, Ab jab sab haasil hai Toh sochte hain, Kya hum khud muqammal huye ? Medhavi

Shikaayatein kuch khud se Hain, Kuch tumse bhi, Kabhi miloge toh poochenge, Tumne khud se humko bachaaya kyun nahin? Medhavi

Andheron mein gum kisi saaye ki tarah, Woh ajnabee huye kisi paraaye ki tarah, Mudd ke dekha toh khud se hi takra gaye, Toot Gaye ek pal mein hakeekaton ki aayeene. Woh nikal gaye saamne se beete afsaane ki tarah, Woh mitt gaye takdeer se guzre zamaane ki tarah, Jitne thhe haseen khwaab sab murjha gaye, Khud par hansna chaaha toh nain pathra Gaye. Medhavi

Khud par se apna haq gawaa baithi, Tere ishq ne mujhe itna banjaara kar diya... - Medhavi

Darwaaza khula tha zindagi ka Tumhari aahat bhi suni thhi Bas tumhari sarhad farzon ki chaukhat thi Aur mera daayara teri mohabbat ki tadap thi... -Medhavi 16.06.14

Aadatton ki aadatein samajhte samajhte Na jaane kab fitraton se mulaaqaat ho gayi Jhaank rahe thhe guzre waqt ke dareeche se Aur Bas Yun hi hasraton se baat ho gayi Medhavi

Us Kachchi sadak ki marammat aaj hote dekhi Jiske kankaddon se humne Yun hi khela Tha kabhi Khoobsurat lagegi shaayad ab woh puraani gali Par sawaal phir bhi Dil mein aaya mere puraana wahi Woh kankadd ab bhi tumhari daraaj mein padde Hain Kya ? Unki dhool ab bhi tumne bachaayi rakhi Hai ? Ya is nayi sadak ke banne se bahut pehle Tumne Meri tarah Meri har yaad bhi bhula di hai Medhavi

आज यूँ  ही तुम्हारी याद आ गयी, और सोच में पड़ गए , तुम होते तो कैसा होता... शायद मुशकिलें आसानी से आसान हो जाती , रातें  यह शायद सो कर गुज़र जाती , हर सुबह  तुम्हे  ख़ुशी से  याद करते , मिलने  के नए बहाने हम बुन्ते ... पर  अब तुम इतनी दूर  हो , की कोई पुकार  तुम तक नही पहूँचती , कोई खत तुम्हारा पता नही जानता , कोई ज़रिया  तुम से  नही जुडता ... सोचते  हैं अक्सर , क्या  तुम हो आस  पास कहीं  मेरे , मेरी गलतियां  देख रहे हो , या मेरे  रास्ते  चुन  रहे हो , अगर हो तो हाथ बढा रखा  है , बस एक कदम आगे  बढ  कर , थाम  लो हमको . कि  बिखर  रहे  हैँ  ख्वाब यह  सारे , इस  अेतबार  पर , की तुम हो यहीं  पर , एक दफा  बस  लौट भी आओ , सांस  दे जाओ , ज़िन्दगी  भर के लिए ... . . Miss you Abhishek Singh. Please come back. RIP.

Oh that smile still gives me shivers, And then people tell me it's just your picture.

The way you look at her Is somewhat similar to the way I looked at you, So sometimes I try to convince myself that you're in love too, hence leaving me was justified.

नींदों  ने  कर  लिए  हैं  समझौते  तुमसे , तुम  कभी  लौटोगे  नही , और  ख्याल  तुमको  छोडेंगे नही . - मेधावी

Woh puraani diary aaj Jala di Maine, Usmein shaamil kuch woh khat thhe, Jo kabhi tumhe bhej na saki, Kuch woh baatein thi, Jo tum sun na sake, Guzri huyi kuch tanha aur bebas raatein thi, Jo kabhi subha na ban saki, Kuch ankahe se khwaab thhe, Jo tumhari nazar mein sama na sake, Aaj aag ki lapton se ghire, woh saare khauff, aazaad ho Gaye, woh saare dard, aazaad ho Gaye, aur hum bhi Tere ishq se aazaad ho Gaye. - Medhavi

Dry roses, blurred words from love letters, Bills, movie tickets and chocolate wrappers, Still reside in that diary that you gifted me last. Today I held it and almost convinced myself, to burn it, And then a dry leaf's ashes flew from the pages, drenched my toes. It's how you fool yourself when you're still in love, And I kept the diary back, behind my clothes again. Smiling and then laughing at myself, for being so stupid, For being so much in love, For even preserving the ashes of the things you once touched, And not opening the doors of my heart for even a ray of love.

परदे  के  हिलने  पर  अब  भी  ज़रा  चौंक  जाती  हूँ  मैं , कभी  तुमने  दस्तक  दे  दी  तो  मर  ना  जाऊँ  कहीं ... - मेधावी

तुम्हारी  हंसी  गुंजती  है  अब  भी  कभी  कभी  कानो  में , फिर  आयीना  देख  कर  मैं  गुजरे  कल  पर  खुद  हंस  दिया  करती  हूँ | - मेधावी

मोहब्बत  जो मोहब्बत  ना रही , वो शायद  कभी थी ही नही, यूँ ही तुम्हारे नाम ना जाने, कितने ल्फज बार्बाद कीए मैने | - मेधावी

Raat ke teen baj jaate thhe, Aur neend nahin aati thhi, Intezaar bhi rehta thha, Bekaraari bhi badhti thhi... Shart thi bin lade teen maheene guzaarenge, Kya naam dena hai isko yeh baad mein sochenge... Aur dekho teen din mein kahaaniyaan badal gayin, Jo waqt nikaalte thhe apne waqt se, unke liye har mohlat lambi si padd gayi...

When I'm in your arms, my soul smiles and my heart breaks, because I feel complete, but I know it's not meant to be.

Pehle si mohabbat Jo bhool chuke hain lafz mere, Tumhe soch aaj na jaane kyun ghazal bane baithe Hain.

Ek lamha thamaa hai ab tak, Kahin waqt ki bheed mein, Guzar gaya hai kab ka, Hamare tumhare beech mein, Phir bhi atki huyi hai tamanna wahi, Jo thodi dhundhli bhi hai aur saaf bhi, Goonj rahi hai sarhadon par ek aawaaz bhi, Lautne ki guzaarish Kar nahin sakte, Aur ruk tum ab sakte nahin, To kuch mulaaqaaton se churaa lene do mujhko lamhe kuch toote foote, Ki lamha thama hai ab bhi wahin, Jab aakhiri daffa kahaani shuru huyi thi, Tum aage badh Gaye the, Main wahin ruki huyi thi, Yahi kehna tha shaayad tumse, Ki Ek lamha thamaa hai ab tak, Kahin waqt ki bheed mein,

Woh choo Kar humein us raat Bhool Gaye agli subah Jise Maine samjha shuruwaat Woh thi unke liye bewajah Chand lamhon ke liye Jab maine khud ko aazaad paaya tha, kho Kar panaahon mein unki Hosh hi nahin, yeh Dil bhi gawaaya tha, Woh unke liye bas kuch fursat ke pal thhe, Hum bhi unke guzarne wale Kal thhe Unke Honthon ki haraaratein Jo Meri saansein ab Tak bhooli nahin Unke jism ki khushboo Jo ab Tak mere us raat ke kapdon se chhooti nahin Uski ungliyon ki chuan Jo Meri ungliyon ko zabaani yaad hain kisi aayat ki tarah, Aur woh raat Jo nibhaayi maine sachchi mohabbat ki tarah, Unke liye bas woh ek behka hua lamha tha, Mohabbat ki sejh par khwaab mera hi Tanha tha... Unki maujoodgi theher si gayi ehsaason mein zindagi ki tarah, Ab saans aati hai to unke ehsaason ko choo choo Kar, Ki unhone samjha nahin kaabil e mohabbat humko, Aur hum unke naam Yun hi apne saare khwaab Kar aaye... Ab naasamjhi kahiye ya deewanagi isko, Ki kuch haasil nahin, na-ummeed hai Dil bhi,

Agar hamari kahaani ko mukammal hona hoga, to koi mausam, koi mushkil, koi ranjish, koi iraada, koi waqt, koi shaqs humko todd nahin paayega. Magar agar sitaaron sa toot kar hi humko zindagi ko mukaam dena padda, kisi daur mein aa kar koi faisala lena padda, To yaad rakhna ki mohabbat pehle bhi thi, ab bhi hai aur umr bhar rahegi, Maujoodgiyon ki bas zara kami si rahegi, taareekein dohraayengi khud ko, saal badalte rahenge, hum bhi alag raahon par Chalte rahenge, Par har solaah october ko jab din ka ek pal tham sa jaayega, Aur guzre waqt ka aayeena saaf nazar aayega, to bas muskuraana yahi yaad Kar ke, Ki taareekh mujhe bhi yaad hai aur hum tum ab bhi ek dusre ki Khushi ka bahaana Hain.

Ek tasveer nigaahon mein utaarte utaarte, Ek jhoothi zindagi guzaarte guzaarte, Aaj thak gaye hausale, sehem gayi ummeedein, Aur tham gaya aakhiri ashq bhi palkon par, Ki ab zindagi mein zindagi nahin rahi, Chhan ke muskuraahatein bhi gir gayin, Khud ka bhi ab sahaara na Raha, K Kuch iss kadar mohabbat Zindagi ko khaali Kar gayi.... -Medhavi

The worst thing about depression is that you might not even notice it. You might never be able to pin down your chronic sadness, your habitual dislike of socializing, your short temper to depression. Chances are you have, like others, internalized the most common reaction to it – “get over it”. Depression is seen as a first world problem, a sign of mental or emotional weakness. We try to brush it under the carpet, living in denial and telling ourselves it's just a phase. Truth is depression can affect anybody; in fact, people with a higher level of resilience and strength are even more prone because they hold up for as long as they can, stretching their tolerance limits to the extreme. Giving up is not an option. And when it hits, it hits hard. With the kind of work stress, social media pressure and fragmented relationships we have in the modern world, depression is all too real a thing and means that you are only human. You might be good at what you do, you might be decently su

When you can't sleep and the past replays on loop, When the night is young but your thoughts are old, When you can hear the fading tick tocks of the clock and silence screams, When you are tired and sleepy but still scared of your own dreams, When the dust on the window pane becomes your mid-night concern, When the careless whispers of the night become conversations, When you are lonely, But act mature and don't admit, When you want to cry, But act brave and don't break down, Let the night speak to you when you refuse to listen to yourself, Let your regrets fade off and allow yourself to laugh at them, Let your anguish empower your wisdom for a while, Let your madness overpower your sanity for once... Medhavi 07.04.17

Kahin bheed mein kho Gaye tum, ab dikh bhi jaate ho to gair lagte ho tum, intezaar bhi nahin, ummeed ka tinka bhi nahin, phir bhi kyun yaadon ko kyun khangaal jaate ho tum

Jab intezaar ka bhi intezaar ho, Tujhse milne ki tamanna hi baar baar ho, Jab tamanna ki bhi tamanna khoobsurat lage, Aur Milne ka din na ho tayy par wahi ek zaroorat ho... Jab chaand nikle par, Chandni se roshni na chhane, Zikr ho tumhara aur, Kaagaz par sirf nazm aur ghazal hi bane, To puchna tum bhi, Apni khidki par jami oas ke tinkon se, Mere sheher ki hawa se unki Kya mulaaqaat huyi ? Kyunki mere aayeene Tak, Tere tasavvur ki khushboo hai bikhri huyi, Aur kamre mein Teri maujoodgi bhi zara uljhi huyi, Aur tujhse milne ke intezaar ke intezaar mein hun, Ho gayi hun bekaar aajkal, Kyunki main Tere pyaar mein hun...

Two things are the easiest to do in life... One - Hurting someone for your own benefit or sometimes satisfaction, Two - Giving up ! I don't know you much but I know that you'll never choose the easy way out ! These are phases of self doubt, existential crisis, pain that you can't express or explain and tears that don't come out but scribble your self belief with sharp edges ... I'll just say that believe in yourself and believe in the fact that after every dark night there's a bright day. There are things that you can't cope up with, there are things that don't let you sleep, there are things that don't make you feel good about even the brightest of days and best of times, but that's how life is... Unpredictable yet beautiful in it's own ways. Just wait for your time and trust me, it will all be awesome again... But again.. life will keep happening and like a pendulum you'll keep touching the extremes and coming back to the same places an

Kal ki mulaakaat se aaj ki mulaakaat ka waqt, Yun hi nikal gaya, raat ka andhera Yun hi khaamoshiyon mein pighal gaya, aag jal rahi thi kisi Kone mein, par lamhon ki garmaahat  baaton mein kaid thi, hansi aur thahaakon ke beech, guzri Zindagi ke kisson ki goonj bhi thi, yeh kaarwaan bhi hai, aur daastaan bhi, kuch waqt hai meherbaan bhi, guzarne do is lamhe ko, sahi galat ka hisaab mat rakho, ki waqt ko waqt se samajh Lena hi Zindagi hai....

I always heard stories about love... watched films.. n read poetry... n had certain ideas n ideologies about it. Unconditional.. unselfish... patient.. kind... that's all what I had always believed until I met you. Because it was then when I understood and felt the actual depth of this four letter word. It is not just unconditional but a little demanding... as it demands some level of acknowledgement if not love in return. It is not just unselfish because it expects  ... as it desires fidelity.. it is not just patient but restless as it endures pain but still manages to show its happiest phase... it is not just kind but a little mean.. as it makes us negative towards the person who want to hamper it's essence. I have learnt about all the paradigms of Love through you... I have seen myself changing for good.. for bad... for the best n the worst. I have seen myself growing n witnessed my own decline.. I have seen my own damage n recovery... I have learnt so much about myself..

Gum ho jaaun, Woh zarra nahin main, Tinkon ki ginti ka, Koi Tukda nahin main, Rangon mein ghul jaaun, Kuch aisi tasveer Hun, Main manzilon ki seedi, Aur dusron ki taqdeer Hun...

Every morning when I woke up in his arms, His breaths matched mine, Like our souls were synced...

Kuch baat to thi usmein Warna bikhar Kar bhi In tinkon mein uski maujoodgi ka Asar na rehta

Yeh waqt ki tasveerein kaafi nahin hain, Kyunki ehsaas Hain anginat, Aur frame bahut chota hai... Muskuraahaton ke peeche chupe huye lafz kaafi nahin, Kyunki ankahe raaz Hain anginat, Aur guzarta waqt nayi yaadein sanjota hai... Rangon se ghulta yeh rishta kaafi nahin hai, Kyunki baatein Hain anginat, Aur Zindagi bahut choti hai... Hamari kahaani jab doosron se sunti Hun main, To kuch guroor bhi hota hai, Jab apne wajood ko tum mein gum hote dekhti Hun main, To kuch hairaani si hoti hai... Yeh bataana kathin hai, Ki tum Kya ho mere liye, Rishte se behen ho, Par Zindagi si ho mere liye, Ek darwaaza ho, Jiske darmiyaan hamesha  sukoon hai, Ek raasta ho, Jiski manzil hamesha rangeen hai... Aaj ka din hai khaas kyunki, Tumhara aaj Janam din hai, Meri bhi Zindagi badalne Wala, Aaj ki taareekh ka yeh din hai, Tum ho keemti kitni, Yeh jataana naamumkin hai, Lekin aaj bataana zaroori hai, Kyunki aaj tumhara Janam din hai... . . . Happy Birthday Di ♥️ I love you

Uss raat ki parchaayi, Tumko bhi bhigoti hai Kya ? Jazbaat ki khaamoshi, Tumko bhi jhanjhodti hai Kya ? Jab neend ho aankhon mein, Phir bhi tum jagte ho Kya ? Beete us lamhe ko chhoone ko, Khayaalon ko raah dete ho Kya ? Maujoodgiyon se meri, Tumhare khwaab toot-te Hain Kya ? Ho Kar uski baahon mein, Mera aks dhoondhte ho Kya ? Jalte alfaazon ko jab waqt yeh hawa deta hai, Tum muskura kar yun, bheetar choor hote ho Kya ? Apni roz ki raahon ko, Mere Ghar ki oar ab bhi modte ho Kya ? Ab bhi aankhon mein kaid, Us raat ki khushboo hai Kya ? Aarzoo ka ikraar nahin lekin, Justajoo ka izhaar hai Kya ?

Ek lamha tod ke rakha hai, Taqdeer se jhooth sa bol Kar, Tum apna lamha bhi jod kar rakhna, Aankhon mein bandh Kar ke rakhna, Ki waqt ki bauchaar aksar ashq ban jaaya karti hai, Isliye mera lamha apni taqdeer mein piro ke rakhna... . . . Medhavi .

Mudd ke dekha Jo agar, To raahein bhatak jaayenge hum Par chalo ek pal than Kar, Is pal ko said Kar lein Zara... . . . Medhavi .

Kho jaane do kohre ke darmiyaan mujhe, Thikaana na poocho, manzil ka pata na poocho, Le jaane do raahon ko us paar, Jahan khud se mulaakaat karne ke liye, Ijaazat na leni pade... - Medhavi

Jab hasratein thi, waqt nahin tha, khwaab the saikaron par, unka duniya ki nihaahon mein koi Matlab nahin tha, ab hasratein bhi hain, aur khwaab poore karne ki chaah bhi, par inko baant-ne ya mukammal karne  ka waqt nahin hai... To kisi tarah aadhe adhoore khwaab kaid karne ki aadat daal Raha Hun, duniya ki raftaaron mein bhaagne ka saleeka seekh Raha Hun, waqt mein se waqt nikaal Raha Hun, aur do chaar puraani yaadein taaza Kar Raha Hun...

Chaai ki chuskiyon ki aawaazon mein, Aur cigarette ke dhuyein mein gum kuch lafzon mein, Khwaab pirote hain hum Kal ke, Yun hi dhoop chaanv mein baithe baithe... Kabhi nikal jaate hain sadkon par, Bin raah, bin manzil jaane, Kuch is kadar bunte Hain kaarwaan Zindagi ka, Khud ek dusre par hum tum hanste hanste.... Yaari ya yaaraana, yeh dosti ka afsaana, Mausamon mein kho jaane wale ek lafz ka kohra, Murjhaate waqt ko panaah deta, Ummeedon ka gulistaan... Puraani tasveeron par jami yaadon jaisa ek taraana, Dhaagon se baandhte hum tum is dosti ka yeh naghma... . . . . Wrote this for Wappu

Kuch teri aawaaz ki aadat hai Kuch mere ishq ki fitrat hai Warna yeh din raatein itne mukammal pehle kabhi na thhe...

Jo khat likhe nahin Unhe pahunchaane ki jaldi hai Jo khwaab bune nahin Unhe rafoo karne ki jaldi hai Jo lamhe mehfooz Hain khayaalon mein Unhe Tere zariye chhoone ki jaldi hai Tere Hain kabse Phir bhi Tere hone ki jaldi hai...

Ek lamhe mein simti huyi ek raat thhi woh, Sau mulaakaaton mein se ek mulaakaat thhi woh, Manzar deewanagi ka tha aur bekaraari ka bhi, Bandagi thi thodi aur aawaargi ka mausam bhi, Pakad ke haath uska main khwaabon mein usay kheench laayi, Bandh Kar ke darwaaza waqt ka dhadkanon ne li ek angdaayi, Thoda ghabraaya sa tha woh, Aur andhera kamraa tha, Chandni ki mehek thhi aur pal woh thehra tha, Ghul rahi thhi saansein, Sargoshiyaan bikhar rahi thi, Khaamoshi ki thi baatein, Aur khushbuein sanwar rahi thi, Be-aahat tha har Kadam, Be-gairat tha har sitam, Usmein meri har ek saans utar rahi thhi, Aur raat Yun hi khwaab si guzar rahi thhi, Ki bas hua ek ehsaas, Ki hai yeh bas ek khwaab, Khol darwaaze kaanch ke, Maine usay bas Yun hi dhakka diya, Jamme huye waqt mein, Usay nazar mein kaid kiya, Ki woh raat thhi kayaamat ya haqeeqat thhi woh, Yeh soch aaj main phir se muskuraane lagi....

Us raat jab hum tum jaag rahe thhe, Khayaalon ke sheher mein lafz bhaag rahe thhe, Sannaatton mein dabi baatein thhi kitni, Aur ranjish gile sab dhundhlaa rahe thhe... Tumne chhua tha nazar se apni, Nasha sa kuch hawaon mein ghul raha tha, Ungliyon ne ungliyon tak ka safar tayy Kiya tha, Aur Nazar mein aayeene sa tera chehra dhul raha tha... Kuch khushbu si guzri aaj uss raat ki, Kuch syaahi ban kaagaz par utar gayi, To kuch khwaab ban zehen mein sanwar gayi... Kuch guzra waqt yaadon mein khanak gaya, Kuch baatein phir khud mein ulajh gayin, Kuch hansi, kuch ashq ban, Phir ehsaason mein simat gayin, Aur woh raat phir nazar ke saamne se guzar gayi

Tere haathon ki lakeerein us raat, Meri lakeeron mein dhundhlaa gayin, Jab chu gayi Teri ungliyaan, Aur taqdeerein takraa gayin...
