‘Out of sight, out of mind’, they sayBut what about the muffled whispers of the heart,Reminding it every night, every day! While laughing with abandon amidst a crowdOr strolling past bare, woebegone treesAlthough I try to deny and shroudYour absence stings me like buzzing bees! Be it our raillery or your raw, unfiltered viewsRuffling your […]
Hey, I remember the last time I was sitting beside you, laughing with wild abandon at one of your wisecracks. I never knew it would be the last, though. How would I? Countless such instances drift through the canvas of my mind, splashing bittersweet emotions of elation and anguish. My heart may not have healed […]
Little games don’t bother me anymore,Or maybe they do…And I cry myself a river,But then I see right throughPicking myself togetherWithout as much as a quiver.You think you can hurt me?Satisfied with the power you wield?Well, think again, for life taught me how to build an invisible shield…It’s a pity, your tricks won’t make me […]
In a galaxy far, far away a beautiful angel, Li sauntered around amidst beams of multicoloured exuberance that were her surroundings.

Time passed by,Alas!The ‘harmless banter’ seemed to have harmed her heart,Her mind let out a long sighSeeing her sob yet again, comforting her […]
Her Pride screamed within her, ever smoldering, suppressed away from the view of the world, only to recoil as she tossed and turned in vain, at midnight. Like a harrowing spectre it would threateningly cast its shadow over her entire being, ruthlessly blaming her for its suffering. By day it seemed a piece of cake […]

The misty clouds settled gently on the mountain peaks. The cool winds caressed her face and she felt a wave of exhilaration pervade through every inch of her existence. A renewed energy.
