Tonight


Dear, let tonight be different. Let's not part our ways at dusk; accompany me to my place tonight. Tonight, let me be with you rather than your memories. “Possibilities are infinite”- they say. Tonight let's choose the one in which our worlds get entwined.

Tonight, step closer, break all the rules and restrictions we are chained with. For a few moments, forget about the society which awaits to attack us with a myriad of questions on ethics and morals in the upcoming morning. Darling, tonight stay with me, behind bolted doors in a dimly lit room. Stay, the way I always wanted you to, in my fancy dreams.

Tonight, look right into my eyes till I feel your intense stare piercing through me. Without blinking even for a fraction of a second, let your constant gaze break the fake facade I wear into a million pieces. Look as if you can see the real me, through the mask I never took off because of the fear of being judged. Dear, tonight look as if you can see a whole of the universe swirling in my button like brown eyes.

Tonight, breathe very close to my face. Let me feel its warmth as I close my eyes and get lost in a heavenly pleasure. Wrap me in your arms and rescue me, as if I am like a flickering candle about to douse.

Bring your ear close to my heart; hear my heartbeats as if it was a part of a mellifluous crescendo. Explore me, experiment with me, and let me strike the different cords as if you are the string of my favorite guitar. Darling, tonight trace the deep scars etched on my body and soul, healing them with your divine touch.

Tonight, I want it to be memorable. Let it be loud and pronounced this night rather than leaving it unsaid like every other night. Tell me that I am the one you have been searching for all your life. Tell me that I look beautiful despite all the flaws I have. Tell me that I resemble home in far off foreign land. Dear, tonight tell me that you love me. Tonight, just do it. Do it, even if it is a big lie!

Tonight, let yourself fall for me, hold my hands and rise with me.

Dear readers, keep reading, keep sharing...

The Moon is our real companion

(Captured: 14th Nov. 2016, 7:38pm) The moon is a familiar sight in our sky, brightening dark nights and reminding us of space exploration, past and present. But on  this special supermoon — Monday, Nov. 14 ,  I want to admit it that this is really means “super” because it’s the closest full moon to Earth since 1948. We won’t see another supermoon like this until 2034. Scientist and astrologers take their view that The moon’s orbit around Earth is slightly elliptical so sometimes it is closer and sometimes it’s farther away. When the moon is full as it makes its closest pass to Earth it is known as a supermoon.  At perigee  — the point at which the moon is closest to Earth — the moon can be as much as 14 percent closer to Earth than  At apogee  — the moon is farthest from our planet. The full moon appears that much larger in diameter and because it is larger shines 30 percent more moonlight onto the Earth. In philosopher's view, I would like to admit that moon is p

NUMB

Do you Remember, You once told me, that no matter what may come our way, we would have each other by our side, but why is it that I sit here, all alone, thinking about you and thinking about what could’ve or should’ve been? We’d known each other for years throughout the highs and the lows. And you know what? what stayed constant was the bond that we shared, but now that just seems unreal to me. Tell me, where did I go wrong? We fought and we made up, we laughed and we cried, you understood who I was, where I came from and now that you’re not here with me anymore, there’s no one who ‘gets’ me anymore like you did. Why’d you have to go? We promised to be there for each other through thick and thin, but why is it that I can't seem to find you anywhere, now that when I need you the most? I fell in love with your imperfections, not with the pretty face you put up for the world. I made mistakes, I fucked up at times, but hey! we all did, ain't we? I can't seem to figure out

I walk alone. This is my truth.

I've have always been a walker. According to my mother — who I admit is an exaggerator — I started walking at 6 months. The first time I took the streets alone, I was 8 years old. I had missed the school bus, and my mom had already left for work, and I didn’t have a way to contact her (this was before cell phones became ubiquitous). I decided to walk to the next town over where my aunt lived. It was a 30-minute journey that required crossing over 3 major intersections, and a bridge. I thought I was going to get in trouble for doing it, but once my mother realized that I could handle a trip like that on my own without getting run over by a car, I was allowed to walk everywhere — and so I did. My walks were not wasted. I spent a lot of time having full-blown conversations with God about everything. I didn’t care how it made me look. I had a brief period between the ages of 10 and 12 in which I had one of those no-secrets-do-everything-together friendships. I wanted it again,
