It's time.....!!
There comes a time to stop trying to make things right with people that won't own their part in what went wrong. I lost my mind, many a times, just to understand yours. But alas, as always I couldn't. You are like a bird for me, who could never be caged, you have your own world, your own freedom, your own sky, where you always wish to fly high. You are your own music, but where am I.
Today, I am letting you go, but that doesn't mean that I don't care about you anymore, it's just that you are a part of my history but not a part of my destiny.
We all, at some point of time, need to let go, why tie weights to the ankle?
Just let go, forgive, feel light.....
It may sound like you lost the world, but may be you gained the universe.....!!
Today, I let you go..........!!

"क्या, कुछ कहा तुमने?
हम्म, शायद कुछ सुना मैंने
कहीं कुछ अनकहा सा
कुछ अनसुना सा
दबी क़दमों की आहट सा
दिल के किसी कोने से
टूटी हुई आस सा
कहो ना,
सुन रही हूँ मैं
जो नहीं कह पाए तुम
वो तुम्हारी आँखों में
पढ़ रही हूँ मैं
मेरे दिल के किसी कोने में
अभी भी एक आस जगी है
रोज़ रात आती है
रोज़ सुबह होती है
बस एक तेरी कमी सी है
पर तुम कहो न
सुन रही हूँ मैं,
नहीं कह पाओगे
जानती हूँ
जाना चाहते हो तुम
कहीं दूर , मुझसे बहुत दूर
एक अलग मंज़िल की तलाश में
जिसमें तुम हो
और सिर्फ तुम हो
पीछे छोड़ देना चाहते हो
गुज़रे हुए वक़्त को
तो कहो ना
सुन रही हूँ मैं,
जाओ, चले जाओ
जब तुम यहाँ हो ही नहीं
तो क्योंकर रोकूँ तुम्हे
तुम अब आज़ाद हो
तुम्हे जाने दिया मैंने
अब सिर्फ कुछ सन्नाटे हैं
मेरी यादों के
अब उन्हें सुन रही हूँ मैं.... "
Translation:
"Did you say something,
yes, I did hear something
something unsaid
something unheard
just like the sound of pensive steps
just like broken hope
so speak up,
i am listening to you,
things you could not say
i am reading those in your eyes
somewhere in my heart
there is still a ray of hope
everyday the night falls
the morning comes every day
only you are missing
but you speak up
i am listening to you
No, you won't be able to say something
i know
you wish to go far away
far from me
in search of new destination
in which only you are
and only you are
you wish to leave behind the past
so speak up,
i am listening to you,
Go, just leave
when you are not here
then why should I stop you
You are free now
I let you go
Now, there is silence
and sound of
few of my memories,
And I am listening to them...."
