Mirror or Mirage?
Someone close to me, has recently gotten out of a relationship. Its sad what love can do to you. It can make you doubt yourself. It can make you doubt your ability to trust people. And worse still, it can make you doubt the idea of love. And still, you know that you are still in love. And you know, that its like a catch22 situation. You are miserable in love. You are more miserable out of love. Does anyone deserve this? I dont think so. Will it get better? I do hope so. Will she love again? I am sure it will be so...
Someone close to me, has recently gotten into a relationship. Its beautiful what love can do to you. It can make you feel good about yourself. It can give strength to your trust in people. And better still, it can make you love the idea of love. And still, you know it is real, this time around. And you know, that you will do everything you can, to make it last. Because it seems so right. So perfect. Do people value this? I think they do. Will it stay this way forever? I do hope so. Will she love again? Sigh. I think she will...
Mohabbat ke hazaar rang
Ek rang to tum chun lo
Kal zindagi sooni ho jaaye
Ye ek pal to tum rang lo
Ki ek pal mein main hoon
Aur ek pal mein tum ho
Do boond samay ke bas ab
Tamaam zindagi bhi kum ho
(Her poetry is beautiful, whether in hindi or english... the Princesse writes them at Mirror or Mirage)

"And worse still, it can make you doubt the idea of love. And still, you know that you are still in love."....I'm not saying anything, OK? Pliss to note the restraint. I'm not saying ANYTHING! :D Kehene ke liye kuch raha bhi nahin. Bleady. "Do boond samay ke bas ab
Tamaam zindagi bhi kum ho"...Wah!!! Wah!!! Wah!!
So true!!..I hope she will love again , no matter how impossible it seems right now..I so hope she does.
You yourself write so well in English or Hindi.I am amazed at your command in both the languages.
No way.. you wrote that poem?
That is so beautiful..
Happy Valentine's!
if only people weren't so concerned about loving or hating "the idea of love", loving and living would become much easier.
shiv
Wishfulthinker,
And in stating that you wont say 'anything', you have said much :)
Shukr'an.
EU,
Yup, everyone deserves love. And not just once.
Merci much :)
Jupiter,
Happy Valentine's to you babes. And yes, that was written by yours truly :)
Shiv,
Now that's a thought. But then, love or life, were never simple, were they?
Ah ... Love is a bundle of paradoxes!
How true. Love could be so beautiful one minute and so heartbreaking the next...I am sure she will love again once the pain fades away..
Happy valentine's day :)
Cheers!
If there's one virtue we all posses its got to be resillience. Little do we realise in what vast quantitites we have it in. Falling and rising in love is what makes the trip a little more interesting. Its just for us to decide which way we;re headed.
But love... its got so much to teach us. SO much to learn from it... I have seen people and personalities built on this foundation. Its truly remarkable.
Happy V day !
That poem. Amazing, Casa. Truly amazing.
Jay,
Sigh. It so is.
Unveilings,
And that I guess, is the beauty of it. That we forget the pain, and plunge in it, once again.
To you too :)
Saurabh,
Very well said. Our resillience and our persistence never stops surprising us.
Hope you have a great valentine's day too.
The One,
Thanks.
great post casa!
out of all the pain and misery comes hope:
hope is a wonderful thing... maybe the best of things
and the poem - wow! man you can write!
nice. i love this song, btw. have a happy valentines day! :)
I think more than 'beautiful' love is 'hurtful'. More than mirror it is mirage. It is an idyllic situation which is never in reality.
I won't wish your that friend to fall in love again but will wish her to get never hurt again.(whatever it takes for that!)
Big Man,
Sometimes I wonder if pain, infact, kills hope...
Prerona,
You too :)
Green,
But they say, its better to have loved and lost, than never to have loved at all.
"they" would have not lost it, so don't know it.
dont know why but this song is in my head since morning (and its evening now:))
jab pyar kia ti darna ka
pyar kia koi chori nahi ki..pyar kia
ghut ghut aahain bharna kia!
*hiccup*
hehehehe!*hiccup*
and on the post...i say thanks great piece of poetry there...very very very well written *hiccup*
PS lagta hay bohot pi li main ne aaj *hiccup* :P
casa: very well written. after a while the mirage fails.. and the truth sinks in !
Green,
Now we'll never know, will we :)
PS: Why so negative?
Paheli,
Piyo aur aish karo ;)
Ligne,
But sometimes, the truth changes. Doesnt it?
yep it sure does change. ok this is not really connected to what you wrote...but was reminded of this ghazal/song sung by suresh wadkar
seene mein jalan aankhon mein tufaan saa kyon hain ?
is shahar mein har shaks pareshaan saa kyon hain ?
dil hain to, dhadakane kaa bahaanaa koee dhoondhe
patthar kee tarah beheesa-o-bejaan saa kyon hain ?
tanahaee kee ye kaunasee, manzil hain rafeekon
taa-hadd-ye-najar yek bayaabaan saa kyon hain ?
kyaa koee nayee baat najar aatee hain hum me
aaeenaa humei dekh ke hairaan saa kyon hain ?
hey, nice stuff you got there.. cheers. Mirror or Mirage.. hmm food for thought.
"Mohabbat ka ek rang,Usko tum chuno,apne aapko aise rang do,Ki duniya ki rangeeniyat bhi dhuljaye,sapno mein aise ddalo apne aapko ki,sapne haqeeqat banjaye"
Love is such a feeling which makes or breaks a person,but end of it all We all move on and maybe one day we might find someone...somewhere:)
Well written :). two sides of the coin. and being helpless about it is the ugly innocence of it
I hope things work out for her. I hate the plateau a relatinship hits in 3 months. Bleh! Hopefully she will steer clear of it ;)
Ligne,
That is BEAUTIFUL!
is shahar mein har shaks pareshaan saa kyon hain ?
This is so true for our times, isnt it? Sigh.
Me,
Thanks.
Alapana,
Infact I think some are lucky enough to find more than just one 'someone'... just a matter of time :)
Totti,
Yes, I think its our helplessness when it comes to our emotions, that bothers us.
Archster,
Hmmmm, so you dont like the plateau. I thought that was called 'stability' ;)
Beautiful post, beautiful song, most beautiful poem on a very apt day!!! Kya baat hai yaar.. hum toh dang reh gaye.. kya likhti hain aap...

Princesse,

But that really, was my intention.

Raul,
Now when did this Blogger magazine start??
And this song, isnt new. DONT tell me you've not heard this before :p
Gee,

Think ahead girl. Blogger magazine is another entry in my "To Do" list. It'll happen soon after the disc is functional. As they say one "small" step at a time !!!
And yeah i've heard this song before. Just said that it's lovely.
