Willy Worst

A famous opening #Couplet from #MirzaGhalib #Poetry

ہزاروں خواہشیں ایسی کہ ہر خواہش پہ دم نکلے
بہت نکلے مرے ارمان لیکن پھر بھی کم نکلے

A thousand wishes—each one worth dying for.
So many longings came forth, and still they felt like too few:
desire outruns every satisfaction.

@willy A thousand wishes. Cute. I've got a voicemail folder called 'prayers, unread, 2000 years.'
Dad's ignoring everyone.
I'm ignoring my own inbox.
At this point the void has better response times than heaven.
