The Sea of Creation.

I have seen a Sea,

a sea so big, so majestic, so complete.

A sea that could contain all of creation, which led me to the name, I believe.

The waters tempted me, said to me,

"Take a dive and you'll be freed".

"Become freed", that's all I want, I jumped, drifting deeper in ecstasy.

Drowning in it,

I saw it all with my own eyes.

It's tragic I can't explain it, and it certainly can't be denied.

I truly saw it all with my own eyes, saw all there was to be seen.

The very source of existence,

1 was overwhelmed, my soul felt retrieved.

A sea so complete,

The whole cosmos contained in it,

The stars, The Void and everything in between,

Liberated from the prison of time, and hence eternally free.

Containing all of life,

Containing its very essence. illuminated by the light,

Completed by the darkness.

I asked myself this Question, and it itches me still.

To drown in this endless ocean,

should I feel fear? be afraid of this eternal drift?

Or would The Sea Of Creation

Containing all that has been, is and will ever be, is it capable of sending me home?

Liberate me, set me free?

Life Bled, Death Whispered, God Watched — Point-Blank

Today was rather cold. It's not uncommon for January mornings to be bone-chilling and windy, but today, I could feel the wind pass through my sweater, hit me point-blank, and extinguish the remnants of heat that my skin and bones radiated. Hitting at point-blank, being hit at point-blank—both are mutually exclusive events, but there's a contradiction; both are cohesive too. When a bullet leaves a gun and pierces the flesh of a living entity, it not only splatters the blood of its victim but also ravages the innocence of the perpetrator. When a lion tears the flesh of a dying deer, it not only eats parts of its prey but preys on parts of itself, too. When I am long lost in this smoke, when this nicotine roll burns in my hand, it's not the only thing burning. Death always occurs in pairs, but neither entity ends the same way as the other, and it's rarely instantaneous. It's more of a slow, gruesome, tragic, yet cinematic event. Death is always violent. Sometimes, it a...

approximation errors of life

I just woke up from a fever dream and it dawned on me that the dream lasted too long and hasn’t been that long since I arrived. Does time move differently in dreams, with different experiences, does it relapse, can it not be stuck in a loop of my favorite childhood memory? I wake up with these questions, and I don’t quite know when is the right time to ask questions and when is the right time to answer them. The timing is important you see, when you choose to change the curve and when you accept the flow, it makes all the difference. Also, pardon my casual language, I just woke up from a fever dream. I think about existentialism and how the originality of human experiences causes self-alienation and how lonely the suffering can be ( yet I never wished any suffering on you ). I’m not a philosopher, educator, or a liberal arts student wandering and wondering about the technicalities of life ( i don’t know who the addressee is ), however, I still believe the originality of human e...

Flesh

It’s a spring day today. It’s summer in the sun and winter in the shade. My body does not know which season to belong to, so it lingers in the in-between, splitting itself apart. Half burning, half frozen. Half alive, half rotting. You understand this, don’t you? That feeling of being suspended between two selves, two states of being, neither of them quite yours. The warmth touches you, but it does not sink in. The cold nips at your skin, but you do not shiver. You are not here, not really. You are only the shadow you cast. Just like you, The enormity of my desires disgusts me. I want to be called beautiful. I want to be told I am loved—not once, not twice, but over and over again, until the words sink through my flesh, until they take root in my bones, until I become something soft, something sacred, something worth keeping. But I am made of spoiled meat, swollen with things that should not be here. I hold too much filth inside me—blackened regrets, sickness curdling beneath my ribs, ...

The Silent Takeover

The air tonight is thick, darkness stretching out like a lie too polished, too staged. The city below glows in dim yellow light, but it is a deceptive kind of glow, shuddering like a breath too weak to hold on to. Somewhere, laughter spills from a distant window, but it is hollow, floating into the night like a shadow of what once lived. They say the night is beautiful. That it is a whispered promise, a fleeting touch, a sky too vast to hold. But beauty is often just a mask stretched thin over something ugly. The moon shines down, with a smile that does not reach my hollow heart, basking in radiance that was never truly its own. The stars blink like knowing eyes, but they are nothing but remnants of dead things, whispering from too far for us to listen. But the night does not love you. It does not listen to your secrets; it swallows them whole. It watches, as footsteps echo in deserted alleys, as shadows stretch under flickering streetlights. Somewhere, a deal is sealed with a quiet ha...

Dying with Borderline

The face I see in the mirror of the woman looking at me feels foreign. I look at her while I dissociate. Are we the same? Do I live inside of her, or does she control me? Every waking moment, a thought creeps up: Is she sane? Am I ruining her life? What if I merge with her? Is that even possible? We look the same, yet we have no sense of familiarity. I fail to recognise her on most days. The picture she took a week ago seems so different; is that her real smile? Does her nose crinkle up? The ghost of me walks through the hallways of the college, smiling at people, sometimes strangers. I have lost all control over her. We are two different beings now. The third one who recognises her shows up some days, but we don't let her stay. She dared to call me a monster while all I did was protect her. She knows she doesn't deserve love. We know it's never going to come our way. Her trying to look pretty only gets her looked at, stared at, and objectified. But we know that's the ...

The lesser The more

Strange, right? Hard to digest, but somewhere felt by everyone. Remember the first time you felt self-doubt? The first time you felt that all your efforts fell into silence, but not into nothing. Something you aimed for but could not achieve, Something close yet always just out of reach. A goal, a dream, an ambition you gave your soul into, Chasing it might have felt overwhelming. Falling might not have felt like failing, Rising might not have felt like victory. Everyone prepares for the good part—obviously acceptable! But what about what if? The only thing to expect is one day, one win. Find magic in the ordinary. Shift your perspective just a little, and feel the change within. The lesser you expect, the more you grow within. The lesser you expect, the more you embrace self-love. The lesser you expect, the more joy finds you. The lesser you expect, the more life surprises you. It’s not just what you expect from others, but from yourself too. The best things aren’t explained—the...

WILL YOU BE THERE ?

Sometimes we just crave for someone's presence When a thousand thoughts cross the mind, The time passes just to rewind, Will you be there ? When the night is dark And the day is darker, When the words are sharp But the thoughts are sharper, Will you be there ? When in the best of situations Nothing seems right, When the days are scarier than the night, Being my twilight, Will you be there ? When in cloudy skies I can't see the moon, I'll have my own When you will be here, Will the time come soon ? And when the stars align The moments are rare, When we both have time Will you be there ? ~ Akshita
