heartbreak

They can break your heart, but they can't break your soul; poetry about lost love that comforts and uplifts.

Bound by a Gaze
This ghazal beautifully captures the pain of unfulfilled love and longing. The poet finds themselves trapped in the spell of a gaze, yearning for a love that remains out of reach. The imagery of the night, the wind, and the unattainable beloved weaves an atmosphere of melancholy and devotion.

The Silent Cry of Love
This ghazal speaks of an undying love, where the poet’s heart remains consumed by longing. The imagery of fire, ruin, and devotion paints a portrait of a lover who finds solace in memories despite the absence of the beloved. The poem captures the essence of deep, unfulfilled love—one that continues to burn even in despair.

If you're not my world—I'm that face whose beauty has faded away If you're not my world—I'm that river that wants not to flow that way
