Just wanted to be ignored.

Not recognised but no.

I had to know.

I wasn’t able to leave.

Had to stay and listen to the stories.

Now it’s engraved in my brain.

Tattooed to my heart.

Won’t be the same....

The less you see

Beginning writer

Water pours down

So beautiful and peaceful.

I see a woman bathing herself,

The beautiful tattoos etched on her back.

I zoomed closely to capture the reflections on the flowing glass of water.

Little did I know, she was hurt.

She was crying.

She had been physically assaulted.

Tiny gems of blood drop.

The tattoos were scarred yet a work of art.

That eyes will appreciate....

Bloody Sweet

It’s bittersweet.

The fine line that draws between love and hate.

He had all kind of errors.

That doesn’t mean he’s broken.

He’s just a mix.

I think to myself,

When does a man become a monster?...

Just Why?

Beginning writer

Sam.

It’s always him.

He was a part of me.

Until he left one day.

No note, no goodbye.


I cried for days.

Not knowing why.

How could he?


I saw him.

He looked down.

I tried to forget everything.

But I couldn’t.

How can I?


His best friend Nate messaged me.

Out of the blue.

His text just said

“Call me”.


I called.

All I heard was tears.

“Sam’s gone”..

My heart just broke.

I closed m...

Casting Grey

Flutter by.

Into the night sky.

For all is same,

Nothing ever changes.

Dreams still growing,

Yet, I am stuck.

My wings are dusty.

Just waiting for life to bloom.

Until then …

‘I am not a butterfly, I am a moth’....

Coloured Blue

Paintbrush strokes..

Just a tiny mark on the paper,

He scribbled again and again.

His eyes filled with the ocean.

Looking everywhere blankly reminded him of her,


How she left?

She didn’t share her sadness,

She cried herself away.

He only knew what her happiness was.

But not as transparent.

She still remained a distant memory.

All he had left was the ocean.

If only the ocean had arms, he’d f...

Nothing is permanent

How did it come to this?

What was I thinking?

When I had it all,

I didn’t think once to save.

Now I’m weak.

I’m almost dying.

All I need is help.

Help to survive....

My best friend

Beginning writer

There is one friend in my life that makes me happy. He’s friendly, caring and always looking out for me. I can’t even say in words how much this friendship means. To begin with, the first conversation was spontaneous. It started with our love for cinema, films that make us smile. Now, texting, calling makes the bond stronger. Not just that, one smile goes a long way!! Whenever text messages pops u...

Partly buried,

Partly broken,

Promises destroyed.

Kisses deserted.

Two became distant....

Words on paper

Beginning writer

1 min read

Sleeping at night and your mind wonders

Of thoughts and words that needs to be expressed

Searching for answers, but the only way to do it

Is to write

Anything that makes you question or feel

It may seem lost, out of place

When really it’s words that others need to hear, listen and think about.

For now, it gives meanings and lessons

For future, it’s a space to study and annotate...
