कभी तनहा लगी राहें कभी तन्हाई अपनी सी
है साथी साथ क्यूँ फिर भी लगी तन्हाई अपनी सी

ख़ुशी ढूंढी जो गैरों में सुकूं कैसे भला मिलता
खुदी से जो मुहब्बत की बनी तन्हाई अपनी सी

गिले थे ज़िन्दगी से जब लगे थे अश्क साथी से
जो देखे ख्वाब आँखों ने सजी तन्हाई अपनी सी

खबर क्या थी कि रहते गुल छुपे खारों में भी अक्सर
खिले जो गुल तो महकी है अभी तन्हाई अपनी सी

अंधेरों में मिली कोई 'किरण' थी आस की इक दिन
अँधेरा भी लगा अपना हुई तन्हाई अपनी सी

It was a pure and clean friendship with a special bonding.          Days flew by and it was the last day of Samar’s training. Both of them were eagerly waiting for the day to pass. Just an hour before Samar took the tr...

Each passing day was strengthening their relationship n bringing them closer. Ghazal and Vaibhav shared a chemistry which could be a reason for anyone’s envy. With the marriage date fast approaching, preparations had begun in both the families.        One fine morning when Ghazal was making a list of items to be purchased, Vaibhav called asking her to meet him at their favorite ice-cream parlor. Ghazal agreed to meet him there in fifteen minutes, sensing his discomfort, but not asking anything. At the parlor, Vaibhav was already there and met her at the entrance and taking their ice creams sat down in one corner. “Is something wrong Shona ?
