Iss raat ki subah nahin

He gathers her in his arms at night. She burrows all of herself into him.Arms,hands,toes and legs,knees and back,the curve of her hip, they're all in his possession.

She sleeps like a child that night.

The Sweetest Thing

"You're so very sweet."

"No, I am not, I am teekha and grumpy."

"Oh you're Yummy...leave-me-licking-my-fingers-kinda-yummy..."

"Tch...you have me smiling in a meeting."

The image of his magical smile is her undoing.

*"I wanted to run, but you made me crawl....oh oh oh, the sweetest thing."


*Lyrics altered slightly, with apologies to U2.

Possession

"Hurry back home soon, my love", she whispers hoarsely over the phone.

"You left, and took all of me with you, 

  You robbed me of my heart and soul, Saheb," she whimpers. 

His voice, after a moment's pause, is laced with tenderness, 

"I didn't steal anything, Gurya.

  I took what was mine, 

And it will stay with me."

Fait Accompli

He sinks into his Scotch,

She pours into him.

He forgets the Whiskey.

As she blends her breath

With his lips.

Her lips part,

And he sips Eternity.

She whimpers,

He catches her moan on his fingertips,

Threading it through her long tresses.

Heart and Soul,

Pride and Honor,

Tears and Smiles,

She bequeaths all to him,

It’s an utter and complete surrender.

He belongs to her.

He belongs to her, Because he cannot help himself.

“The dice were loaded from the start…..”

Teray Waastey Mera Ishq Sufiyana

He’s the Pir and she’s the Mureed, forever at his feet.

He’s the Ocean and she’s the River that falls into him, merely to feel complete.

He’s  the Beloved and she’s the Lover.

He’s the source, the reason, the destination for everything.

All her joy, all her sorrow flows through him.

And he wonders why she calls him her God…… Silly Boy!

Here comes the rain

“Eighty days. My eyes didn’t land on your face for eighty days, “ she states incredulously.
 “Years. Eighty years", he corrects her.
 She sighs in agreement as she nestles herself into his lap. In a frenzy, her fingers trace and retrace the contours of his face, his arms, as she relives the magic of his nearness.
 Perturbed by the stillness in him, she lifts her face towards him.
 There’s a velveteen darkness in his eyes that makes her catch her breath.
 Because she cannot suddenly find her voice, she gently raises her eyebrows at him, offering him a watery smile. 
“I am soaking my eyes”, he murmurs , ”they couldn’t see for eighty years. I need to soak them.”

 She washes over him all night

Main Vaari Jaawaan

For now, you've only broken me.
In the shape of tear-laden eyes, and quivering lips and unkept hair(that you loved so much).

For now, my Spirit is still intact.
For now, my Faith in you is still there.
Unwavering,unshaken and dheet.


Please don't make me beg .
Please don't break my spirit.
Please don't kill my faith in us and our love.

For now, I am still here,
barely alive, but I am here,
At your feet....
