Burden of my existence hovers upon my
 soul-
My heart weary and cold
I am lost to this madness.
A sickness that can't be cured.
Each breath lingers,
waiting to be the last one.
But this ride isn't mine
I'm still waiting to be carried away
into the depths of oblivion-
Away from this madness
To become one with the place-
All come to.

Masks

Recently I have had a lot of time to think about the various masks put on by humans. Each of us presents a different facade to different people, making it challenging to truly understand someone. Right now, I am at a stage where many things in my life are going wrong because of a version of me that existed and is now indigestible for my world. The question that keeps coming my way is, why that mask? Why put it on in the first place? The truth is, masks make us feel safe even when they get suffocating and unbearable. They are like a shield that makes one feel stronger even if its an extra weight we are dragging around. I know my mask makes you feel frustrated and disconnected. Yet, I wonder, why is vulnerability something you seek in me but hesitate to show me in return? Every time my heart cracks a little, I learn a little bit more about love. I used to associate love with familiarity and similarities, but now I see it differently. Love isn't about drowning in guilt and fear; it...

Kingdom

At one point, before him I wanted a kingdom I wanted someone to build me one But now After it all I realise Its not a kingdom I wanted It was just him All of him But all I got was a kiss It wasn't passionate Wasn't paniful Didn't split my lip It didn't taste like  bliss, love or hope It was a dark kiss one that licked the edges of danger and heartbreak It challenged me And then it broke me I got too close Too much and now I'm paying the price -Sruthi Nair If you have any suggestions, doubts or queries feel free to mention them in the comment box below.

SS: Love

I have never told him I have been in love with him as far as I can remember. It's just one of those things that I know exist but chooses to ignore. He was in my every thought. My every breath. I woke up thinking of him. I went to bed thinking of him. My love for him was one of those cliches. But I never got to tell him I loved him. Years had passed since I last saw him. I had moved on with my life, trying to forget about him. But every now and then, I would think of him and wonder what could have been. It was a chilly winter night and I was walking down the street, lost in thought. That's when I saw him, standing at the end of the road, looking at me. As he walked towards me, I could feel my heart racing. It had been years. But at that moment it did not feel that way. Something in him called out to me. "Hey," he said, smiling. "Hey," I replied, trying to sound casual. We stood there for a few moments, the silence between us almost palpable. And then, without...

OBSESSION

Obsession is always seen as a negative thing. It's used as a negative comment. Apparently, this world thinks it's wrong to be overly passionate about something. Quit that thought! Do not apologize for being obsessed.  Obsession is a gift that not many has. Read your book the entire day. Stay all night working on your paper. Spend two hours making the perfect meal. Not all obsession is bad. Sometimes obsession just means you have more to offer. Learn to distinguish between good and bad. If you want perfection, go for it. Don't let anybody stop you from doing what you need to do.  You are who you are. There is no point trying to fit into a mold the world has made for you, you will never be comfortable.  Do not let the world drag you down. Love yourself! You are amazing! With all the love in the world Yours truly, Butterfly If you have any suggestions, doubts or queries feel free to mention them in the comment box below.
