The world has allowed only a few women to pour their hearts out....

We are more than a certain role that society has fit us into. We are human beings who are Vulnerable, broken and exhausted.

Deepti Mishra and her unrequited love.

The chaotic melancholy of Faiz..

Parveen Shakir amazes me every time.

From the pen of Shakeel Badayuni that later was adopted by the voice of Begum Akhtar.

What a beautiful dream it was. I knew it would hurt me. I knew that in the end, all I could get was a sobbing heart and a soul more broken than before. But I decided to live in the illusion. The illusion of getting a forever that I once pictured, a hand I saw holding mine, a shoulder I laid my head on to cry.

In the end, I woke up alone in my bed, hugging my pillow under the sheets with an ache strangling my heart and a cry that no one heard.
