And then I grew weary
Of the world

And sought
A little pain

like salt
to add
to a perfect cup of coffee.

Never seen anyone seeking pain

dard apnata hai paraye kaun
kaun sunta hai sunaye kaun

Kaun dohraye vo purani baat,
Gam abhi soya hai jagaye kaun

Vo jo apne hain kya vo apne hain
kaun dukh jhele aajmaye kaun

Aaj phir dil udas hai
dekhiye aaj yaad aaye kaun.

thanks :) these days all i seem to be doing is venting out emotions, actually spewing it like venom, hoping they will subside with words...like this poem of urs...i can understand..sometimes we seek pain..sometimes its needed to get numb...

Dear Chiya: Beautiful! I was actually looking for some sad shayari to put on the blog and this would have fit the bill just right!!! Thanks!! Kis ne likhi hai?


Dear Tell me no more: hmm.. i do that too.. hoping that pain will go away by screaming, boozing in silence, every night, till it goes away, or anything.. so All the Best for whatever it is.. and i would really like it if you could tell us whats happening!!

Ye Javed Akhtar ke aashar hain.

Dard se rishta purana lagta hai aapka.

Dard ki had se guzranaa to abhi baki hai
Tut ker mera bikharna to abhi baki hai.

Chand sheroon mein kahan dhalti hai dard ki aag
Gam ka ye rang nikharna to abhi baki hai.

Dard ki had se guzranaa to abhi baki hai

Chand sheroon mein kahan dhalti hai dard ki aag
Gam ka ye rang nikharna to abhi baki hai.
