Dar Lagta Hai Apne Aap Se  (Hindi, Paperback, Sach Jacky)

There are many fears in our lives, relating to our emotional and personal being that touch us at the innermost corners of our hearts. Some fears manifest themselves in our dreams, through childhood memories or through day-to-day upheavals. But one thing is common among these fears–they can be expressed in simple words facilitating a vent or an escape from them. My fears have often been about losing my loved ones, all that I have achieved in my life and the happiness that the little things in life have to offer. In many ways, these fears are also related to my loneliness and ambitions. There are many inspirations behind these poems–a kid walking barefoot on the street, a woman begging for her son, false emotions, hollow smiles, etc. And hence, my poems are a reflection of all that a common man feels. DARR LAGTA HAI APNE AAP SE–I fear myself.
