The Itinerant in the Himalayas

Reaching you was hell of a task and sent me into uncountable bouts of breathlessness and I swore I would never come back to you. After leaving you, I lost my appetite straight for three days, I was relieved that I will never come back for you. But memories are a bitch. Those 8 AM sunrises that started with hot hot ginger, lemon and honey water. Glad that I could not get a signal up on you, I would sit there and watch you just blow cold cold air, no matter how hot the sun shone. Shamelessly stuffed my face...

Review : The Color Purple

"And I couldn't understand why us have life at an if all it can do most times is make us feel bad. All I ever wanted in life was Shug Avery, he say. Well, us couldn't have each other, he say. I got Annie Julia. Then you. All of them rotten children. She got Grady and who know who all. But still, look like she come out better than me. A lot of people love Shug, but nobody but Shug love me. Hard not to love Shug. I say. She know how to love somebody back." Took me almost two...

An open letter to love in my life

This is an open letter. I am taking this chance to clear up my notions about loving someone and being loved by someone. I want to be loved in a way that makes me love myself more. I want to be loved in a way that celebrates me the way I am. I want to be loved in a way as if I was some festival that I could make so many people happy with my presence. (If you take pictures, make me feel beautiful. :D) Same goes for you. If I tell you I love you, you should know...

The Runaway Bride

May 9, 2019September 17, 2021

She had everything, so why did she run away?

She loved him, she wanted him, but why did she runaway? They accepted the way she was, then why did she runaway? Did she run away from him? Did she run away from the responsibilities the society exacted from her? Probably she may not have run away to quit after all. Maybe she was chasing her demons in the dark, Maybe she was running away from life altogether, Or maybe, she ran away to find herself, before it was too late.

The Sun Dancer of Rajasthan

She keeps on moving her feet, hiding her beautiful yet unrecognisable face from the glaring sun, with the veil studded with mirrors which shone like thousand stars

Her arms laden with shell bangles and her face and the rest of the body bedecked with jewels, She keeps on moving her feet, hiding her beautiful yet unrecognizable face from the glaring sun, with the veil studded with mirrors which shone like thousand stars, When her feet move, her soul moves around the images of her children waiting for her at door, When her arms move, her anger courses through her slender body, why was she never enough for her pimp of a husband, When she twirls around, she looks at the crowd watching her, and watches her skirt...
