If You Could Turn Back Time…
If, by some magic, You could turn back time, What would you change? A situation, A word, Or an act? Another person, Many other people, Or yourself? If, by some magic, You could turn back time, Would you relive it? Stay there a little longer, Stay silent some more, Or stay the same? See them [...]
Go, Be a Fool
Enough with the smartness. Enough with rightness. Go, be a fool once in a while. Go, live freely for sometime. You think too much. You do way much more. But has it all always borne fruit? But has it all made you happy? A machine was made for a reason. A person obviously not for [...]
Remember Me

I want a love A lot like food. Not just any food, But my favourite kind. Not any more, Not any less, Just right, According to my senses. The kind which Even when not in form, Still is heartwarming, Still means home. No day can wreak Enough havoc That this food Can't overcome. Whose thought [...]
I Will Catch You
I know it's scary To dream too high, To think too ahead in the future. But if that is what you really want, Then fly, dear. If you fall, I will catch you. I know it's nerve-wracking To actually take that leap Of faith and everything you have. But if that will make you happy, [...]
Distance
Sometimes, distance is good. It can bring people closer. Closer than they were When they could actually Feel one another. Sometimes, distance is good. It can make the other side look greener. Greener than it ever seemed When they were together On one side. Sometimes, distance is good. It can help take a breather. Better [...]
