When Shariq Kaifi sahb said
" Bematlab ki bhir lagane walo se, jaane Wala aur akela hota hai,
Ghar pe use mehsus karo, ya sehara me sannata tow bass sannata hota hai "
We all felt that. We often relate loneliness with singularity. But loneliness does not have to be related to how many people you are surrounded by. You can be lonely even when you are surrounded by a 100 people. Because the loneliness is within you. The hundred people you are surrounded by don't connect with you. You don't get the intimacy you crave for. At that point the crowd makes you feel even lonelier. It makes you feel the Stark contrast between the crowd and your life. You have a hundred people around you. A hundred people who are there in existence, but still ain't there for you. The crowd makes chaos. But the chaos makes you feel emptier,lonelier. That's what kaifi sahb said. The void is within you. A void that the people around cannot fill, do not want to fill.
