I could barely touch you with my lips,
But your eyes, they consume me,
daily.

As we tend to rely on
temporary things for comfort,
we are choosing to stay ignorant,
to his bigger plan.

Tides may come and go,
but the shore is forever.

It’s really brave how we put ourselves through so much emptiness,
just to bring a little something out of it.

Some strength, calm;
may be a little hope.

I know it is hard to step out of the cozy castle
you had locked yourself in for years,
dreading what this brutal world
had to offer to your tender little heart.
But only when you take the first step out,
you will know that nothing is more comforting than freeing your own heart.

I promise, it will all get better once the society stops making its ‘what-not-to-do-lists’ for women.

The most imperative trait to appreciate in a person should be the way he appreciates and celebrates others.

The world would have been a better place
if people were on the receiving end
of their own actions.

No matter how far you have gone or how successful you have become, there will always be that one person who pulls you down, shows up in your happiest hours and constantly reminds you how miserable you really are!
Not necassarily an outsider, it could be anyone or it could be you.
Or may be, knowing or unknowingly,
you are that ‘person’ in someone else’s life.
So if you think you don’t deserve that, the deal is actually very simple.
Try not to be that person in someone else’s life. That mean, harsh human-being who ruins someone’s enthusiasm while they are on their way to a start-up or the one who yells ‘you can’t’ even before you have tried;
just don’t be that!
And believe me, it’s not tough.
It might be hard to pretend that you like them but it’s not tough to be kind. Probably, being kind to someone is the easiest thing in the world.
And even easier is being kind to yourself.
So next time, if someone is mean to you or tells you that you are not enough,
remind yourself, you are not only enough, you are perpetual.

Strange. Tongue-tied before someone you once talked to, all night long.
Benumbed, looking at the one you once loved the most. Stranger.
‘First love’, they say.
You may have not seen them in decades
neither did you talk about them in years
yet that one name is skilled enough
to daze you, all over again.
Your first love and your first loss.
One that is irreplaceable.
A feeling that makes the smartest of the bunch
act stupid.
A flame that liquifies the coldest hearts
inch by inch, drop by drop.
A smeared magic. A rainbow.
Years pass, you go places, you rise.
You are finer now, you have changed.
But the moment you walk across
that tarnished, narrow lane,
your heart will skip a beat.
Then another.
So helplessly, you smile.
You smile with acceptance.
You can not forget your first love
or the loss that followed.
You, my friend, can not destroy eternity.
This rainbow though yours,
is not yours, at all.
