THY ELOQUENCE

  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...

  "Heard melodies are sweet, but those unheard are sweeter."                                        ~Keats Love, Affection, Romance and what not is one of the most crucial part in one's life. It gives us immense pleasure to be with our loved ones. But does being together really mean being physically together or has it gotten something more to it? I think it's love when you feel at home even at the thought of someone. I think it's love when their absence doesn't become your weakness. I think it's love when they are with you even when they aren't.  Physical Affection sure brings alot to you, but is it really a necessity when it comes to love? What I believe is true love lies in distance and also helps in proving it. Long distance relationships sure are difficult but also a wave of emotions, both good and bad. They say any rare thing once possessed, loses charm of having it. Hence ...

 And just like that we grew up  From playing in our verandas to managing a whole new life alone ,that's growth From being used to the conventionalized experience of formal education to managing a whole lot of cultural, social, intellectual and personal transition on your own ,that's growth   Something just completely changed your life but you  have to accept and go on, that's growth Sometimes change is scary ,but change is growth You start having new perspectives about stuffs ,that's growth Hoping and continue to do out of the box things to prove yourself how strong you are ,that's growth From just being insecure about your flaws to accepting and carrying them with grace as your imperfections make you unique, that's growth Breaking out of your comfort place and getting involved in different ,new and unexplored parts of society ,that's growth From being carefree at times to being responsible for all the decisions you make in your life alone ,that's growth...

On the darkest days, the sun won't shine, the stars won't twinkle, only the dark clouds will swirl.  Do you know what's worse than the darkness that engulfs you? That you don't know if the sun and the stars forgot their routine, or you just forgot to open your eyes.  Rain isn't so bad after all. It's gloomy yes, but it's also refreshing, purifying .  For a moment it's just the tip-tap washing all your scars.  They say it's about perspective.  Light a candle if it's dark, or simply strike a match. But if it burns all my bridges,  how am I supposed to  get to the other side of the tunnel?  The stars might still be here, behind all the clouds. There might be the greenest valley, outside the tunnel. You don't know if that's true, and it's okay.  Sometimes it's okay,  to be uncertain, to be skeptical.  To embrace the darkness,  but not want to be one with it.  And if somehow,  you see light somewhere,  hold onto it,...

  I wander through a world wrapped in night, Where whispers linger, hidden from the sight. Beneath the moon’s gaze, shadows stretch long, In the silence, I find where I belong. The trees twist like thoughts in a restless mind, Their twisted roots entangle, the truth hard to find. I walk with ghosts of choices gone wrong, In this haunted realm, I search to belong. I escape to a land where the skies are bright, Where dreams are painted in colors of light. But as I dance in the glimmering glow, I realize that the beauty hides secrets I’m starting to know. The laughter rings hollow, the joy feels so fake, In this perfect illusion, I start to awake. Behind every smile, a shadow resides, A darkness that echoes where hope often hides. Yet in the despair, a flicker appears, A whisper of strength amidst all my fears. For the night may be dark, but the stars still gleam, A reminder that life is more than it seems. With each heavy step, I embrace the unknown, Learning to walk through the dark...

“A society’s progress is measured by the safety of its women.” -Anonymous Despite having designed multiple laws for the protection of women, our country still lags behind in the implementation and preservation of said laws. Millions of women across the country continue to live in constant terror of violence and harassment. Is carrying a weapon everywhere we go ‘just in case’ there is a situation we need to protect ourselves from really the norm now? Isn’t it the responsibility of the Indian Government to impose and establish laws and to make sure that they are followed? Laws like The Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005 and The Sexual Harassment of Women at Workplace Act, 2013 have been labelled as ‘development’ and ‘a step forward’ yet thousands of women still feel unsafe and fail to attain justice. So, are these laws truly safeguarding women or are they simply empty promises on paper? Historically, the laws and policies were either completely silent on women’s...

I happened to be alive. I happened to be aware and hoped to be conscious and in control of myself when I decided to visit D2. What is D2? Where is D2? It’s nowhere. Nowhere can be anywhere; anywhere with no name attached to it, anywhere that’s not anticipating to be noticed, anywhere which is desperate for your attention, anywhere may be beyond within or within beyond, or it may just be no where. What I did was – give a stage to my imagination and let it create a figment. Then I included it in my thoughts, provided it my flesh and soul. It started to get a structure as it found shelter against reality within me. I call it D. But my imagination, showcasing its dominance and control of my thought and eventually my reality made me believe, and I still do believe that D is not complete yet. It is enough the way it is. It is content being a part of me. Still it’s awaiting to embrace something that’s not me and yet it is nowhere. I am really sanguine about finding that. I would like D to fee...

Far but never apart....  Though we don't stand side by side,  You are still with me, my always guide,  Beyond the horizon, you hear my voice,  In every fall, in every rise.  Though miles strech far apart,  you are always in my heart.  For friendship isn't bound by place,  It lives in every joy, laughter and embrace.  Whenever I loose my way,  You grasp my hand and take me away.  When the world looses it's trust on me,  I know you will always be there for me.  Our friendship isn't in talking to each other everyday,  But it lies in moments,  In echoes of laughter,  And in all the memories we've made.  Though far away, you're in my mind,  A friend so true, in you I find,  That no great span of time or place ,  Can change the love we both embrace.  ~Aneri :)
