If I could, I'd touch the heart of bliss,
count the veins on a falling leaf,
catch a cloud from a brooding indigo sky,
...
In the heart of darkness and silence,
Lies the iridescent soul of light.
Still center sprouting chaos,
Seeding sunbeams into a haze of translucent dreams,
...
'I know the truth about heaven but
it's a fantasy that comforts the heart.'
Mirza Ghalib
...
'I expect fidelity from someone
who can't spell the word.'
Ghalib
...
'It takes a lifetime for a sigh to sink in,
I'll be dead in the split second it takes you
...
'Love was never my destiny,
A longer life, a longer wait.'
...
Love has turned me into a tramp,
There was a time when I was a man to be reckoned with.
...
Pundits pore over tomes,
searching for jnan.
Confused, empty.
...
I set out in search of evil,
Chasing shadows.
Mirror, mirror of the mind,
Who is the wickedest of us all?
...
