Before You Lose Me, Learn to Stay

There are some relationships that are never defined by grand promises or perfect moments. They survive in late-night conversations, unfinished arguments, stubborn silences, and the comfort of knowing that no matter how far life takes us, there is always someone who will return.

Wo akhiri batein karna mujhse 

Mere baad bhi jhagarna mujhse 

Sb chale jaate hai ek waqt k baad 

Bs tum mat bichhadna mujhse 

Sb ladai karte hai apno se apne bankar 

Jo dobara milun to mat ladna mujhse 

Aksar kho jaane k baad samajh aata hun mai 

Is baar khone se Darna mujhse 

The poem begins with a simple request:

“Wo aakhiri baatein karna mujhse, mere baad bhi jhagadna mujhse.”

It is strange how love sometimes asks for arguments instead of affection. Because arguments mean involvement. They mean that someone still cares enough to stay, to question, to complain, and to fight for their place in your life. Silence, on the other hand, is often the real ending.

As we grow older, we begin to notice a painful pattern. People leave. Some leave because life changes. Some leave because circumstances change. Some leave because feelings change. Almost every relationship seems to come with an expiry date.

And that is why the line:

“Sab chale jaate hain ek waqt ke baad, bas tum mat bichhadna mujhse.”

feels so deeply human.

It is not a demand. It is a fear.

The fear that the one person who feels permanent may also become temporary.

The poem also speaks about the strange beauty of fighting with our own people. We argue only where we feel safe. We complain only where we expect to be heard. Sometimes love appears not in sweet words but in disagreements, stubbornness, and difficult conversations.

“Sab ladai karte hain apno se apne bankar.”

The people who matter are often the people with whom we can be imperfect.

Yet life teaches another lesson. Sometimes people leave, and only then do they become important. Their absence explains their value far better than their presence ever did.

“Aksar kho jaane ke baad samajh aata hoon main.”

There are people whose worth is discovered only after they stop calling, stop waiting, and stop returning. Their silence becomes louder than their words ever were.

And perhaps that is what the final line asks for:

“Is baar khone se darna mujhse.”

For once, be afraid of losing me.

Not because I am extraordinary.

Not because I am irreplaceable.

But because I stayed when others left. Because I listened when others ignored. Because I fought for us when it would have been easier to walk away.

This poem is not about demanding love. It is about asking to be valued before it is too late. It is about wanting someone to realize your importance while you are still present, while conversations still happen, while arguments still exist, and while there is still time to stay.

Because the saddest truth about human relationships is not that people leave.

It is that we often understand their place in our lives only after they have already gone.

And maybe love is simply this:

Finding one person and saying—

"Everyone leaves eventually. Please, you don't."

Aaj Aur Abhi Se

"Mohabbat agar wajah ban jaaye, toh insaan apni hadon se bhi aage nikal jaata hai." Kabhi socha hai ki mohabbat ka sabse khoobsurat izhaar kya hota hai? "I love you?" Ya phir, "Main tumhare liye chaand taare tod laaunga?" Mujhe nahi lagta. Mohabbat kabhi chaand-taaron ki mohtaaj nahi hoti. Woh toh kisi ki aankhon mein apne liye fakhr dekhne ki chahat hoti hai. Woh kisi ki muskurahat ke liye khud ko behtar bana lene ka naam hoti hai. Woh kisi ke liye apni kamiyon se ladne ki himmat hoti hai. Aur shayad isi liye, is kahaani ki shuruaat bhi ek bahut chhote se sawaal se hui thi. "Mere liye kya kar sakte ho?" Caify ne yeh sawaal bahut saadgi se poocha tha. Shayad mazaak mein. Shayad sach mein. Aur shayad usse khud bhi nahi pata tha ki uske is chhote se sawaal ka jawab Kabir ki poori zindagi ki disha badal dega. Kabir chup tha. Woh hamesha se aisa hi tha. Kam bolne wala. Har baat ko mehsoos karne wala. Waade karne se pehle sau baar sochne wala. Usse jh...

The Quiet Reason I Chose Her - The reason behind choosing Caify

I still don’t fully know why I fell in love with her. I’ve turned it over in my mind more times than I can count. Late at night, when the house is quiet and my thoughts have nowhere else to go, I ask the same question again and again: Why her? Why not someone easier, someone less complicated, someone who didn’t leave this strange permanent mark on me? Was it her adorable body? The way it seemed to invite without trying? The soft curves, the way clothes sat on her, the quiet confidence of someone who didn’t realize how completely she filled a room simply by existing in it? Was it her eyes? The way they looked at me like I was both a secret and a safe place at the same time? Was it her smile? That small, slightly crooked one that appeared when she was genuinely happy, the one that made everything around her feel lighter for a moment? Was it just her presence? The way the air changed when she walked in. How ordinary days suddenly felt like they were holding their breath, waiting for her t...

Kisi ke saath to kisi se bichhad ke jee raha hoon

Kisi ke saath to kisi se bichhad ke jee raha hoon, Barish mein baith aankh ka paani pee raha hoon. Ab kaun kambakht odhe is ishq ki chaadar ko, Muddaton se phati thi ye, bas usi ko see raha hoon. I sometimes feel that life is a strange place. You sit beside people, laugh with them, talk to them every day, and yet somewhere deep inside you continue losing someone else. Perhaps that is why I wrote, "Kisi ke saath to kisi se bichhad ke jee raha hoon." Because life never really gives us the luxury of grieving completely. It simply asks us to move ahead while carrying the weight of what we lost... People often ask whether I have moved on. I honestly do not know how to answer that question anymore. How do you explain that a person can leave and still stay? That memories can become more alive than people themselves? That sometimes you continue speaking to someone who no longer exists in your life, but still exists inside your heart... 🙂 There are evenings when it rains outside and...
