Some are never completed.
Yet, they remain forever alive in the heart.

About the Author

A Voice for the Feelings We Never Say

Mahi Singh Mayuri is an emerging poet and writer whose work explores the delicate depths of human emotions, love, longing, memories, and the beauty of feelings left unspoken.

Her first published book, Ishq Jo Ik Tarfa: Ektarfa Mohabbat Ki Ankahi Dastaan, brings together her poetic expressions on one-sided love—the kind of love that asks for nothing, yet feels everything.

Mahi’s writing blends gentle Hindi with delicate touches of Urdu and Punjabi vocabulary, creating an intimate and emotionally resonant world. Through sher, ghazal, nazam, and geet, she gives language to emotions that often remain hidden behind silence.

Her poetry is rooted in moments that feel deeply personal yet universally familiar—the memory of someone, the ache of separation, an unfinished conversation, an unspoken confession, or the quiet hope that refuses to fade.

Through her words, Mahi invites readers not simply to read poetry, but to feel it, remember it, and perhaps find a little piece of themselves within it.

A Love Story Written in Silence

Ishq Jo Ik Tarfa: Ektarfa Mohabbat Ki Ankahi Dastaan is a heartfelt collection of poetry exploring the quiet intensity, vulnerability, longing, and beauty of one-sided love.
It is about the kind of ishq that lives quietly within us—the love that may never receive an answer, may never find its destination, yet continues to exist with extraordinary depth.
The collection travels through the many shades of love: silent affection, memories, separation, waiting, longing, vulnerability, hope, and the ache of an unfinished story.
Written with lyrical simplicity and emotional tenderness, the book blends Hindi with the delicate flavour of Urdu and Punjabi vocabulary. Through sher, ghazal, nazam, and geet, Mahi gives form to emotions that are often difficult to express in ordinary words.
Poems such as “Ek Panna Baki Hai,” “Tere Sheher Ki Rawayatein,” “Meri Ankhon Se Udti Hai Neendon Ki Titliyan,” and “Sajan Mere Rangle” capture moments of love, remembrance, distance, and emotional surrender.
For anyone who has ever loved silently, waited endlessly, remembered someone long after they were gone, or carried an unfinished story within their heart, this collection offers a place to pause.
A place to feel.
A place to remember.
A place where ishq does not need to be returned to be real.

FROM THE AUTHOR

“Some Feelings Deserve to Be Written.”

Every heart carries stories that may never be told.
Some stories are born from love.
Some from longing.
Some from memories.
Some from the silence between two people.
Ishq Jo Ik Tarfa is my attempt to give words to those emotions.
One-sided love is often described through its pain, but I believe there is another side to it—the depth with which a person can feel, remember, care, and love without expecting anything in return.
Through these poems, I have tried to capture those fleeting moments that stay with us: a memory, a name, a place, a song, a conversation, a waiting, or simply the feeling of someone’s absence.
If you find your own memories somewhere between these pages, then perhaps these poems have found their true home.
