Our meeting is unknown

“I cannot tell you how thankful I am for our little infinity”.

~ The fault in our stars.

Day we met

way we felt

Surreal tête-à-tête

magical it became in an instant meet.

Why did you make me feel so special

probably gave me feelings all on the same level

As if to you I was a breadth of fresh air

besides the fact, we weren’t on the same page ever

This flabbergasted

amazed and

astounded

stupefied

was it necessary to die?

But I definitely felt alive

for all the time

I felt sublime

I felt my to be mine

Most convos were a surprise

it was sheer delight

A cherished acquaintance

an unexpected remembrance

All this while

it felt all of a new person in me

Whom I never met

never so magnificent

Suddenly in a lull

didn’t feel at all any other than an old one

Gloom in my current ‘me’

never made me feel like ‘me’

You were unbelievably gracious

I was unapologetically garrulous

What a hilariously great chemistry

not to take it technically

Our chats are enough

for that matter

Our distance long enough

never a barrier

Just a glimpse is enough

ain’t no stoppages to laugh

Whatever our current situation becomes

Anywhere our chat does triumphs!

It’s all about a matter of time

It’s not sadness that killed you

It’s happiness that you didn’t find

It’s not loneliness that killed you

It’s crowdedness that made you feel isolated

You were not sad because of lack of people’s company

You were sad because of the unavailability of their availability

It’s not the fault of your brain

It’s the fault of people’s fault for not having their brain

But now it’s high time you believe in karma

It now wants to show you what’s real dharma

It’s not that time doesn’t give you time

It’s that you don’t give the time its time

The cage uncaged is right here in front of your eyes

The crave strived with it, release it off with your wings.

Gratitude

If the question is what's your favorite sound?

I'd say the sound of winds, its sweet whisperings, without words, & with its favorite soundtracks.

Favorite light?

The light of the sun, it only gives & demands nothing for returns.

Favorite movie?

The movie that has the promise to make you believe in love, harmony and in everything that makes you feel alive.

Talking about gratitude the words can never be enough

And might fall short off.

The sun, the moon, sunrise, sunset, moonlight, nature, water, air, this breath, this life, and ending it with the reason for this life.

Challenge
Malaphors
Smash two idioms or cliches together to get something new (Famous example: "We'll burn that bridge when we get there.") May be funny, thought-provoking, odd...

Illusion vs. Realization

And all this while, when she felt she only acted like an illusionist when she 'missed the boat', suddenly she acted like a realist when she realized 'every cloud has a silver lining'.

Prove Me Wrong: Writing Is A Dying, Worthless Art

Writing is to live, is an exploration of self, contains endless praises & I forgot that it’s a title

To write is literally to live, to explore, to dive into the inner part of yourself. Anybody out there who believes Writing is a dying, worthless art, I pity those humans as they have died somewhere inside of themselves. Writing is something when you bleed on the paper, it shows the world the kind of person you are. Because I mean come on, all of us who write with all our hearts out, we kind of always imprint our souls on the paper. And to all the good souls out there can’t ever believe this fact about writing which is not even a fact. Writing is beautiful. Writing is a worthy art. Writing is a sword on a paper. Writing is writing!

“When you make music or write or create, it’s really your job to have mind-blowing, irresponsible, condomless sex with whatever idea it is you’re writing about at the time. ”

KILL THIS REALITY

That’s the thing about dreams

Today it felt like I saw a rainbow of fulfilled dreams

And not just seeing, it even felt like living those dreams

When in reality there is not even any glimpse of it, only dreams!

I’d say - God, I thank you for telling me this. But I’m even more thankful to you for telling me this previously that as I’ve written countless Poems, Stories & whatnot, but if I had one last sentence to say what would it be then I’d say thanks for telling me this in my dream, but now break this dream as I wanna wake up and write even more countless and beautiful pieces.

And make this dream the best dream that I’ve ever had.

INFINITIES

I want to write everything sometimes,

About days, my feelings.

That there are so many infinities,

that comes with all it's magnificent suitabilities.

Dreams.

Why there is always a desire to end it with Fulfillings?

Why there is always a desire to love without Aches?

Why there are so many desires?

Why dancing as if nobody Stares,

Why singing as if nobody Hears,

But is it Writing with 'who cares'?

Is it Living with 'who cares'?

As Living is itself enough for all the infinities.

As Living itself is valuable for all its valuabilities.

Pain meets healing

As they say it all gets better,

Pain gets better,

Situation gets better

But it's difficult for loner.

Days passes,

But healing takes it's time.

Season changes,

But emotions strives for calmness.

And then it's discovered,

Good comes with believing in good,

For that's how uncured converts in cured

A girl’s state of mind

"A girl's heart is an ocean of secrets."

Quotes like these often releases.

Wondered it's a 'gull'?

That's being a girl!

Questioning starts, goes on,

Is Feminism on?

Time to stop being a Feminist,

Hour of becoming a Realist.

For time in it's motion,

Fair becomes it's motivation.
