I have been walking in circles
not all of them visible.
Some I trace with my feet,
some with my thoughts.
A shadow stretches and returns,
a traffic light holds me in pause,
water keeps shifting its shape,
trees stand, watching quietly,
and eyes carry what cannot be said.
The farthest circle is not the one you see
it is the one I keep becoming.

मैं लिख रही हूँ
तुम्हारी आँखें
इस पुराने फटे गले काग़ज़ पर
और दूर एक नज़र दौड़ रही है
बस इंतज़ार है की
वो थक के रुक जाये
तो उसे भी उतार लू….

Of lost chances, forbidden love and remorse.
It’s better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.
What all they have in common? The endings that made sense, all movies’ Last shots are long yet fairly simple.
Films in frame: Potrait of a lady on fire, La la land, Atonement, Her.
What are you going to do with your life?” In one way or another it seemed that people had been asking her this forever; teachers, her parents, friends at three in the morning, but the question had never seemed this pressing and still she was no nearer an answer... “Live each day as if it’s your last’, that was the conventional advice, but really, who had the energy for that? What if it rained or you felt a bit glandy? It just wasn’t practical. Better by far to be good and courageous and bold and to make difference. Not change the world exactly, but the bit around you. Cherish your friends, stay true to your principles, live passionately and fully and well. Experience new things. Love and be loved, if you ever get the chance.

Thankyou for being my color yellow, my sunshine, the only cloud in my entire sky, Thankyou for being you, this is where it all begins Thankyou for being my ‘one day’… for everyday 💚
Outside it is warm and blue and April.
Sometimes, in a panic, mind goes blank, world whooshes away in void, and I feel I have to run, or walk on into the night for miles till I drop exhausted. Trying to escape?
