Pakiza sa Rishta

Many times we yearn to win an argument. To have the last word. Sometimes it can actually be the ‘last words’.

The words may be right, the logic may be flawless, yet something precious is quietly lost in the process. With time, we realize that the strongest relationships are not built on proving ourselves right but on choosing understanding over ego, compassion over victory, and togetherness over the satisfaction of having the last word. This poem is a reflection on that quiet realization—that sometimes the greatest triumph is not winning the debate, but preserving the bond.

The ‘Me’ is never greater than ‘Us’

I hope it resonates in you…

कुछ कहते-कहते रुक गया,

आज फिर रिश्ता मुझसे जीत गया।

ना तुम ग़लत थे, ना मैं सही,

आज फिर ये खूबसूरत सच, मैं सीख गया।

वो बहस हार जाना ही सही था,

आज फिर हार के, मैं जीत गया।

आज तुम सबका, मुस्कुराता चेहरा देखा,

आज फिर हर मसला सुलझ गया।

साथ अपना, और ये पाकीज़ा सा रिश्ता 

मुझसे ज़्यादा ये ज़रूरी, ये समझ गया। 

ये गलती, मुझसे हुई थी कभी

तुमसे जीत कर, तुम को ही हार गया।
