you’ll always know when you see happiness. it is that bright ray of sunshine on a winter morning that feels unseasonably warm, or that comfort of the passing wind just when the sun is about to set. you can watch happiness through transparent windows and carry on still, smiling in that very brief moment. iContinue reading “it doesn’t matter if the happiness isn’t mine.”

parallels
We’re running in between parallels of heaven and hell, waiting and wanting to be a part of both. I see you peeking from behind the wooden door that I left open, wearing a cap and a baseball jersey, lurking in the darkness in search a lone soul. I slid into that yellow shirt you leftContinue reading “parallels”
here comes the sun
In equal parts of light and darkness, we find ourselves staring at sunsets, almost on the edge of letting the sun and all it’s forms consume us in ways we haven’t seen. Before the dawn, watching the skyline selfishly swallow the whole of night, the stars and every other huge mass, the moon and it’sContinue reading “here comes the sun”
normality deficit

Edge of the horizon
You can sleep uninterrupted,If you don’t mind the crying.It is one of those terrible Thursday nights. Only this time, I haven’t any strength to get back up,To fight right back. I speak of my pains, The ones that I could never tell to your face,The ones that I considered unimportant,And the ones that you thoughtContinue reading “Edge of the horizon”
How your heart starts to smile
There is something very endearing about old times,Just like how your heart starts to smile-At the smell of a diary that has been shelved for years;Those tiny fragments of dust and dirt that sits on its cover,That brown tinge that envelopes the pages,Rides a straight path from your head to heart. Wiping off the dust,Continue reading “How your heart starts to smile”
The other side of a visible spectrum
Violet Did you know that violet serves it best to both men and women?Never too feminine or too masculine.Always somewhere in between the huesOf the ultraviolet and the blues.In evening primroses that bloom in my garden,There is a hint of violet that remind me of the times I used to tear them off and flingContinue reading “The other side of a visible spectrum”
I would be lying
I would be lying if I said no one had the least amount of idea of the pain I’m in. As lighting accompanies thunder, so is my life a flush of humour, mingled with the wutherings of my wrath. When the alarm goes off at nine, I leave my bed with damp eyes that haven’tContinue reading “I would be lying”
