Dastaan-E-Ishq

“Be softer with you. You are a breathing thing. A memory to someone. A home to a life.”

It is true, what you hide in your heart is reflected in your eyes. But it is more than that. It lives in the air you exhale. In the light that touches your closed lips before it cascades into the fragments of existence. What you do not say becomes a brushstroke on the canvas of life. It settles in the earth, nourishing tomorrow’s crops. It moves through the rivers, washing over rocks that remember everything that has ever passed. And if the earth around you knows, it will surrender your secrets to a higher being, to the realm of souls. And so, what you hide in your heart can be felt by anyone whose soul is awake.

“When you are attracted to people, it’s because of the details. Their kindness. Their eyes. The fact that they can get you to laugh when you need it the most.”
