Life as I see it!
She sat between friends,Everyone she'd ever known and loved.She sat between those she thought her life support,Everyone she'd ever call.And yet her heart ached, ached with loneliness.The loneliness despite all those around,the loneliness that shook her core.Where she'd gone wrong she knew not,When she'd failed she knew not,All that was left was to breathe;Breathe through...

She had never expected to hear from him,After all those years,She had. never expected him to reach out,And yet, there she stood, take aback. She still remembered that day like yesterday,That day when her life had turned upside down.She had stood on the road, unable to move, Watching the back of his head as he... Continue Reading →
Alone in the tunnel, while the birds fled,Speechless and alone in the hour of the dead,As the great roots of the night grew around me. As the rivers sang and my soul fled,While slowly the fog fell,The clouds stilled while the world paused. The solitude that occupied every waking hour,Cries of anguish that died in...

Her body felt frozen,Frozen on the floor, unable to move.She could still see around her,Nothing else had stopped, only her. The room was empty now,He had run away a long time back.All that was around her was the mess,The mess that had started this whole thing. She felt the cold wetness first,She could feel it...

Every little smile, Every little hug,They all had stayed fresh in her mindAnd yet, they seemed so far away now,Almost as if it had been another lifetime. Back then, at the time of the tribe,Every waking memory had been his.Her day has begun and ended with him,And all else had seemed but irrelevant. And now... Continue Reading →
He had blindfolded her before leaving the house,All she had were the sounds around her for company.She had tried talking to him,But he had remained mute the entire drive. When they finally stopped, she waited,Waited until he came around to help her out.She had thought he would have untied her blindfold,But he guided her into... Continue Reading →
She still remembered that day in the past,The first time she had laid eyes.The first sight, The first painting,That minute she had fallen in love. All else had seemed pointless,The painting consumed her.She knew not what the pull was,But she knew what she had to do. The hands that had molded every stroke,Every swish of... Continue Reading →
Her mind had stopped processing awhile back,The sights around her lost to her soul.The heart continued to beat as it always did,And yet, no emotions came through. One could still see the evidence of the past,Imprinted across her skin.Shades of black and blue,Refusing to heal and continuing to sting. She sat in her allocated corner,Not... Continue Reading →
It had been months since she had felt this way,It had been awhile since he had featured in her thoughts,And yet, she felt like she had been thrown back,Back to when all had seemed lost. It had not been easy for her to move on,It had not been easy to forget,And yet, despite all her... Continue Reading →
Beyond those eyes, farther on, The memories of a better day...
Her life had always been about colour,And all around her, she saw it all in colours!The guy sitting across her, the woman in the corner table,The baby sleeping in the stroller and the waitress bringing her food!All she saw were the colours, the colours that represented them all! She had never tried to look at... Continue Reading →
However deep the scars were,However traumatic the memories were,However hard practicality tried to win,The Heart wouldn't listen... Despite the proof she had,Despite the knowledge that stood front,Despite all the assurances of those around her,Her Heart wouldn't listen... As hard as the past had been,As strong as her resolve had been,As fierce as her mind had... Continue Reading →
