It all turned to dust, they always said, that is where it all began for her. The archaeologist removed the dust from the artefact she found. History began from where stories ended. Always.

I was searching for You
In every person I met,
Every character I read,
Every dream I had.
And I forgot to search within me,
Where You belong.

Tu chahe toh
Tujhe sara jahan de doon
Par filhaal mere dil se kaam chala le
Mere dil mein tu aise basa hai
Jaise meri jahan hai.

Remember the soldier, the nation said. I still remember the husband first, smiled the widow.

Dear Princy, You know how we always get what we actually want. I believe it. I believe to find a home in you. To fight for it. To listen to my heart. I just realized maybe I am not that brave. Maybe you and Home are different. May be you are home. To someone else. I wish you were Mine.

"Ladki ho cricket nahi samjhogi."
"Ladki hoke khelna chahti ho?"
"Ladke naam roshan karte ladkiyan nahi."
"Ladki ho ghar samhalna seekho."
"Ladkiyon ka koi haq nahi sapne dekhne ka"
You won over them all.

They gasped at the dark sky, which seemed to crash upon the earth with its wrath. But what about the storms that brew inside of us?

Recognise those faces in the group photo?
They were once your second family.
Now you turn the pages with a frown.
A question on your lips.
"What was that guy's name?"

For Days and Nights,
Year after Year,
The Sea and Shore,
Played Hide and Seek.
God smiled at their Game
And named it Waves.

Let Us Be In Love...
Until we discover the real deal.
Until the love turns sour with every flaw.
Until we stop being what we are for each other.
Then we go back to where we started
As strangers who once knew each other
Raw and Uncensored.
~ Suranya
Is love a solution to everything
No. But it is a start!
People often say love is not enough. Its not a solution. No. Its not. But it is a start. To end violence. To establish a good society. To heal a broken soul. And to mend broken relationships. But you need to start by loving yourself first. If you don't accept your flaws, no one else will.

Would you know me, the real me,
Beneath the skin and body,
In the soul and heart
Would you travel across eras, decades, time
Let your thoughts meet mine in dreams?
To burn together in the scariest feeling.
Yet be happy in peace.
Would you travel the distance, just to see my face?
Would you care to know
All the secrets and pain,
The deceptive smile held?
~ Suranya
I have travelled so far and long.
I have seen countries.
I have encountered people.
I have moved from fort to fort
Forest to forest
And battle to battle.
Somewhere in those battles
In morals, virtues and responsibility
I was lost.
Lost in my path of life.
It was like a vicious circle.
A Chakravyuh I was stuck in.
I earned a name.
I showed them what I am capable of.
Then, I chanced upon you.
In a life full of battles
You are my peace.
In a journey of life
You are my destiny.
In my will and dreams
You are my prayer.
And in my wandering life
You are Home.
I may be hopeful for them.
To you, I will always be the one
Who had cried out his insecurities.
He had doubts about himself.
But then, you smiled.
Your eyes showed a trust no soldier ever did.
And I once again found purpose.
Just that, it was not in victory.
But Love.
~ Suranya
You mirror my soul and thoughts,
Like the transparent sea of water mirrors the sky.
You read my heart like every beat was meant to rhythm yours.
You make me see the world like I've never seen before.
I reflect upon your thought whenever I see the rain pour.
I smile upon the moments you surprisingly unfold.
We debate our views like the clouds clash with thunder.
We respect each other like the mountains and the Sherpas who wander.
You make my days with your meaningful verses.
Maybe you are the guiding light,
To my lost thoughts.
All I know is with you.
I discovered my being all over again!
