A Song

'दूर तू है या हम हो गए?

फ़ासले थे या अब हो गए?

जाने क्यूँ ये रिश्ते जो थे

ख़तम हो गए 

जाने क्यू ये रिश्ते

जो थे

खतम हो gaye'

I heard this song after one whole year and this time it didn't make me cry. I felt good. I felt free because you no longer have any control over me or my emotions. I listened to the song and realised so much has happened in the last year. There was a time when I used to listen to this song and cry for you. And here I am, listening to the same song and feeling proud of myself. I am proud because I am stronger than before. I am proud because this song doesn't make me feel anxious or bad about myself. I am in a better place. I have learnt to live forever without someone who promised me forever. It feels so good to not have ocean of emotions every now and then. You were a storm in my life who distroyed every piece of my existence. But I forgot that storms do come and go. There comes a time when a storm passes and everything calms down. This is the beginning of that calm.
