Maine khwaab mein maanga tha ek saath aisa,  Jiske saath rahun bhi toh Lage khwaab jaisa... Jo sach hota bhi dikhe,  Aur tootne ka darr bhi de,  Jo har lamha haseen dikhe,  Aur mujhse khoob lade... Jo tohfe mein laaye mere liye jhumke,  Aur mere saath khaane chale golgappe,  Bason mein bhi ghoome,  Aur chal padde bas yun hi haath pakde pakde... Woh khwaab tum hi toh ho,  Jo sach hota bhi dikhta hai,  Par dur sitaaron sa chamakta hai,  Jisse choo lun toh kuch pal main hoti hun Roshan,  Par door hote hi lamha lamha pighalta hai... Tum manzil ho par raasta zara kathhin sa lagta hai,  Bas tumhara saath ho toh achcha waqt bhi mumkin sa lagta hai... Toh vaada karo na,  Ki aise hi pyaar nibhaaoge ?  Jab mere baal chaandi se ho jaayenge,  Tab bhi tum mujhe sone sa nihaaroge ? Vaada karo na, ki chaahe sau khwaab aur toot jaayein,  Yeh wala khwaab nahin tootega ?  Aur tum ek din mere khwaab se Haqeeqat ban jaaoge...

It takes a long time to understand that they take more from you and don't give you enough.  Friendships, Relationships and thankfully troubles and hard times, nothing is permanent. Everything is perishable if not taken care of and not protecting yourself in the process. Take care of your relationships but when they don't reciprocate, let them go. Don't force relationships. Nothing is permanent. Thankfully, memories are.  Most times while moving on from any kind of trauma, we often forgive the person. But more importantly...
