"Priorities of life are changing day by day.
I am standing and looking 
at the fate in my hand of clay
Everything is achievable,
but that day is not in my play
I am moving with the wind
but fell on a shed-ed tree
The branches are dead...
like the emotionless puppet of clay".


-Sanan Javed

All I ever wanted was to live a peaceful life....


All I ever wanted was to be a successful man...


All I ever wanted was to make love to the woman I love...


All I ever wanted was to see my dreams come true...


What frightens me is not if they`ll ever be fulfilled... what scares me is how will I go through my life if they don't. 

الزام

نہ لے میرے پاگل پن کا امتحان 

تجھے احساس نہیں کس حد تک جا سکتا ہوں میں 

صبرو تحمل جیسے الفاظ سے باہر ہے یہ طبیت 

جب چڑہ جائے نشہ عشق کا، پھر صرف اپنی پیاس ہی بجھا سکتا ہوں میں 

کر دوں اعلان یا خاموش رہوں تیری فرمابرداری کا 

ایک وقت پی صرف ایک ہی قدم اٹھا سکتا ہوں میں 

ایسی کوششیں نہ کر کے کل کو افسوس کرنا پڑے 

اپنے آپ پر بھروسہ نہیں، پر تیری زممےداری اٹھا سکتا ہوں میں 

ایک امید کو جنوں میں تبدیل کروا دیا تو نے 

حق ہے میرا ، بلا وجہ تجھ پی الزام لگا سکتا ہوں میں 

"There is in such situations usually a moment of passion during which the unthinkable is said; this is followed by a sense of euphoria at finally being liberated; the world seems fresh, as if seen for the first time; then comes the inevitable period of doubt, the desperate and doomed backpedaling of regret; and only later, once emotions have receded, is one able to view with equanimity the journey through which one has passed."

-from the novel, The Reluctant Fundamentalist.

"If you have the strength,
don't wear the cloth of love,
Or if you do, 
don't moan about disaster. 
The cloth will burn, 
but bear the pain in silence. 
What's venom now 
....is the juice of life hereafter." 


-Molana Jalal-ud-din Rumi
