This snap makes me so emotional. I don’t know why? So some lines from my heart came out…. तुफानो से डर के भागता रहा मै पर जब भी रुका खुदको बदलो से घिरा पाया | है रोशनी कोसो दूर मुजसे देखाजबभी खुदको ख्वाबो मै दफ़न पाया | चाहा जिसे भी दिल से उसे अपने आप से बहुत दूर पाया | जिंदगी मे पाने कि चाहत मे जिंदगी को कम पाया| खोने कि आदत ने हमे ज़माने से जुदा पाया |
