We are heartbroken.We break hearts too.

No matter how well the poets romanticise heartbreaks with pretty metaphors and vocabularies,a heart break is still about tear absrbing pillows,swollen eyed mornings,strainous smiling afternoons, gulzar shahab with tea cups evenings and again the stabbing memories filled dark nights.Because words don’t lessen the wreckage of soul nor gives you closure to your innumerable questions.Words are those bandaids which still hurts you when taken off your skin.

But in the window period of heartbreak and moving on,words will make you feel relatable and can help you taking one step at a time.You decide your painkillers.You change your red flags.You skip to ‘Not available for love’ zone with your swipe rights.You heal you in your ways.May be one day after a month or year,you get your closure not with someone but with yourself.

In some good sunny days,your rebuilt heart meets someone.You befriend him.You be you with him.You dance your heart out in the roads after a tiring day with him.The comfort around him paints soothing colours to your heart.He shows no red flags.He is the one types for every other girl in the parties but you don’t go in his arms.His eyes dazzle with your name but you don’t like your name even then.He brings you your favourite whiskey and takes you to your favourite place,but you left midway with half eaten food leaving his proposal ring untouched.

No matter how crazily someone sings you “मेरे दिल ये सरफिरा
तू सयाना है कहाँ,प्यार बिन तलाश के ही हो रहा हाए बौरेया हाए बौरेया,मोहे तू ही सुहाए बौरेया “,you choose to unfollow that heart and song.May be you are wrong or may be you are not.But truth is we all break hearts.We get heart broken too.In search of a Veer to Sameera,we don’t see the Ahan waiting at the other side of our door with flock of patience and love.Shouldn’t we choose the one who loves us over the one we love?? Ironically,we say yes to this when asked but in reality we don’t do such because irrespective of who you are, Ahan,Sameera or Veer,the Alexa in mind always plays ‘जाने वो कैसे लोग थे जिनके
प्यार को प्यार मिला’.That’s the thing about love, sometimes we don’t see and sometimes love swipes us left.
