Parents: An Anthology In Incidents
I’ll be the first to admit it, parents can be absurd at times, and don’t pull the “They are your parents!” self-righteousness card because it is what it is. Them being my parents is exactly what gives me the power to say so, parents are absurd. They do the most outrageous things and then have […]
Love: The Fantasy Of A Rational Mind
The human mind is a curious thing Thoughts run faster than we think, Fewer things stand out louder than emotions Lies that generations have built, To what do I owe the pleasure of what I feel? This unexpected reality? Faced with this castle of lies Though the truth is bitter, It’s the sweet illusion that […]
The Problems With Planning
The saga of a 19 hour long journey . . . I hate planning. Despise it really but the sad part is, I am obsessed with it. Alright to be very clear I am a person who obsesses over things to an almost… almost unhealthy limit and for this, we need to plan but when […]
Dirty Human Soup
To be human Is to be flawed Directionless And a little bit lost To move in ways Not known to man To flutter about In an unknown land. We are an odd species Mysterious even to ourselves, We fight against our instincts To only prove ourselves wrong, Our pride wins over reason The words of […]
Introverts And… Plans?!
Perish the thought “Do you have any plans for the weekend?” Why yes, yes, I do. They involve a comfy blanket and books. Nothing else could be any better.

Please Don’t Give These 3 Books As Gifts
They are too pretty for that . . . I am a hoarder, I’ll admit it, I hoard books but it’s not too bad. At least it’s not corpses or animal bones. Now since my love for books is so well known, I often get books from my friends as gifts and let it be […]
The Invisible Monster
The silence hung heavy As she lay between the sheets, The whispers grew louder And the silence soon turned to shrieks. The unsaid and unspoken Soon took shape and form, Regrets and remorse Sharper than daggers, Kept her warm. The voices a jumble of words, Worries, fears, lies and dreams, All bundled under a […]
White Noise
The one where the silence decided to speak . . . I wasn’t going to post this as it wasn’t a part of the plan; I had an entirely different post planned for this week. What I write or don’t write depends entirely on what I am feeling at that particular moment and what we […]
