mumbling

how do you tell the world
that you sold it
for a glance?

How do u tell a glance
that it couldn't care less
and you couldn't care more...

How do you tell care
that it is at the wrong doorstep?
This house belongs to heartache.

How do you tell heartache
that it is a misnomer?
It hurts everywhere.

    and I forgot to add that these are more like
    your hand produces what I need to write. I do not have the magic though.

    Oh my dear, you are right. So it does. But not forever, although it may remain in a little place, which is in your heart, to give an occasional reminder.

    kehte hain jise dard-e-dil
    sirf dil mein nahi rehta kambakht
    nason mein phail jata hai
    zehar ban kar

    Before we started making the heart the centre of all our heart-aches and feelings, it used to be Liver and in Urdu/Hindi - Jigar :)
