Ye kaese shehar...

Ye kaese shehar,
ye kaesi duniyaa mein hum jee rahe hein
yahaan har mod har gali mein dhoke ho rahe hein
jaanwar bhi ab insaano se behtar lag rahe hein
aur insaan, insaaniyat se peechhe hatt rahe hein

yahaan koi behen, beti, maa aur patni surakshit nahi
yahaan bhai ka behen pe koi farz baaki nahi
yahaan baap bhi sharmindagi se roz marta hein
kahi kahi meine suna, koi baap apni behen/beti ki aabru se khelta hein

iss se jyada hewaaniyat ki baat kya hogi
abb kisi ghar mein beti ki aawaaz naa hogi
jisse nochte hein log bhediyon ki tarah
woh beti ab kabhi janam nahi legi

woh daregi yahaan aane, is be-reham zamaane se
kabhi beti, kabhi maa, kabhi behan, kabhi patni kehlaane se
har rishte ab yahaan bemaani hote jaa rahe hein
sach hein hum satyug se ghor kalyug mein aa gaye hein

Ye kaese shehar, ye kaesi duniyaa mein hum jee rahe hein

"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
