Love in today's world

Zindagi ajeeb imtehaan leti hein
har khushi ko darwaaze se ruksat deti hein,
jab kabhi mehsoos hoti, khushiyon ki aahat
gum ek chhalliye saa, aake chhal detaa hein

pyaar... mohabbat... bemaani si baatein hein bass
aaj har rishtaa... jismaani saa lagtaa hein...
rooh tak utarne waale, ab woh insaan bante hi nahi
log baahar jhaank, akhbaaron saa pad lete hein

sach to ye hein k mohabbat ab kitaabon mein padi jaati hein
badi filmon aur bade pardo pe dikhaayi jaati hein...
par insaan ye, unse bhi kuch naa seekhaa hein...
seekha to bass khule aam pyaar ka naatak karna...

naa dar khudaa ka, naa dilon ke tootne ka hein
bass darr to sabko apne jhoote ahemm tootne ka hein
apni do pal ki khushi k liye, bujhaate hein kisi ki chaahat k diye
bhool jaate hein, kisse kya waade the kiye...

 aesi mohabbat agar mil bhi jaaye to kya haasil,
aesi chaahat agar mit bhi jaaye to kya gum hein
achha hein hum akele hein iss zamaane mein,
aesi bheed mein gar kho bhi jaaye to hein kyaa haasil...
kya haasil....

"Unloved, Not Unworthy"

Married at 21, divorced at 26— No honeymoon, no couple’s dance, no romantic fix. Never held hands on a journey afar, Never wished on a shared shooting star. Seventeen years without love's grace, Eleven alone—just empty space. I’m 43 now, the world moves on, But my heart still aches where dreams are gone. Fake smiles, false hopes, love betrayed, Used, discarded, quietly decayed. Yet here I stand, still breathing pain— Longing for love, yet left in the rain. If you feel this too—know this is true: You are not unlovable. The world just failed you. _Pooja Agarwal_ _1st July 2025_

"I"

Image
I am in progress... With time I have accepted and understood the reality that some people don't come to me because they care for me or like me, they only come to me because they see me as someone who is... "Vulnerable" | "a flesh" |  "a divorced woman" | "living alone" | "have no one" But I CANNOT be defined in these categories... I am MUCH MORE than this, A LOT more, than one can IMAGINE.  I am a strong person who definitely get hurts but rise and shine again.  I may cry every night but I will wake up next morning with a smile and hope.  I may be broken and alone inside, but I have the courage to make others smile. I still believe in love, no matter I have been judged for being caring, sweet, innocent and loving. I know, I have been hurt, betrayed and disowned a million times by people who were once part of me. But I won't give up, because I am a Phoenix !

THEY Are the people who destroyed a pure soul and now call her "such girls". THEY are, the so called part of this society. -Pooja Agarwal Jan. 31st, 2025
