Art

What makes a human a human? Is it the mechanical pursuit of answers or something on the line of experiencing? The latter! Since we cannot experience as much from our lives, we ought to visit the realm of art and subjectivity once in a while.

I like to compose songs, hike, visit art galleries and museums and click random pictures of streets. Find my favourite songs and poems and my Photography below.

Ani diFranco

the song Falling is like this, 2019.

Feels like reckless driving when we're talking.
It's fun while it lasts, and it's faster than walking,
But no one's going to sympathize when we crash.
They'll say, "you hit what you head for, you get what you ask."

We can't fight gravity on a planet that insists,
That love is like falling,
And falling is like this.

from Mujhse Pehli si Muhobbat. Unclear as to when it was written.

Laut jaati hai idhar ko bhi nazar kya kijaye.
Ab bhi dil-kash hai tera husn magar kya keeje.
Aur bhi dukh hain zamaane mein muhabbat ke siva.
Rahatein aur bhi hain wasi ki raahat ke siva.
