no questions

"naina, ashq na ho,
aasoon karte hain humein kamzor, 
naina, ashq na ho."

surrounded by forests, no light streaming through
the sun fights to pierce the darkness,
breathing hard and slow, trying to understand
why the wind has suddenly changed direction,
there is a strange silence in the air,
you are here.

you and me, a house on fire.
our love has burnt us down to ashes,
and now, we scatter
into the wind.
