Blue and Yellow

You’re a constant itch at the back of my throat, an upcoming deadline, an uneasy feeling, a child that needs care, a parent refusing to go to bed till you get home. My wandering mind always finds its way back to you. But I do not complain, rather this than nothing. I swear I know people who sleep next to each other less in love, sweetheart.  I’ve been one of those people.

The things I write about.

But if you catch hold of me in the dead middle of the night and cut me open, you will find a little girl that is questioning it all. Do I see you in the desperation of an addict? In the screams of a quite child?

New Era – five hills, a million memories

It’s been over five years that I got into a car and drove away from Panchgani knowing fully well that I won’t be back for a very long time. In a larger picture, five years might not seem as long, but you have to have been in a boarding school to know how time can…

How it was sweet

I wake up. It’s a new day, I walk to the kitchen and among all the bustle, make myself coffee. I know when I start living by myself, this won’t be as simple. In an empty apartment, the coffee grinder will become my morning kiss. So I continue pouring as I take in the noise….

It’s the perfect crowd for a Thursday

I’m sitting and thinking to myself how beautiful the women in Eric Clapton’s life must be to inspire such music. Two drinks down I decide they are probably god-like. Three drinks down I’m contemplating if they are god like only in his eyes.

Both at once.

I’ve been the ‘other girl’, the cheerful one, the suicidal one. The girl that’s prim and proper, the hopeful writer, the hot mess. I’ve been a damsel in distress waiting for a savior and I’ve fought my way to being an independent woman.

To fall in love with someone whose eyes you’ve never looked into?

hey told us we were fools, because we were. What did we know about each other? Nothing! And sometimes I felt like that was the best part. We started from scratch and discovered every detail of our personalities. Right down to why you chose to be vegetarian. Why you chose to make that mistake.
