Let love come to you

Let love come to you, in the rawness of its form.

Let it walk, crawl, leap, but perhaps never rush


Let love find you

In a random seashore, in an old gift, a photograph, or a misty morning

In the company of friends, in the quietness of a partner.

Let love magnify your heart for someone

Let love magnify someone's heart for you

Let it make you one with their contentment, anxieties, and awkward silences.


Let love come to you

Don’t settle for empty labels or shallow ties

Love can not be a refuge from loneliness.

Let love be honest with you

And you, be honest with love.


For neither happiness nor sorrow, neither certainty nor hesitation

Can bring you the peace that honesty with love can.

The Morning Tea

This morning I chose to have coffee over tea. These choices, whether to drink coffee or tea, to take the metro or Uber to office, give me immense joy, and a hint of contentment. Having some, albeit very little, control over certain things that I do is gratifying. I no longer have to drink milk and bread in breakfast out of compulsion or remember to call someone if I'll be coming home late.  In a new city which has its own aura of clusters and glories, achieving these small joys, and to be able to make the choices are a tremendous source of mental comfort. I have never truly had a home, so for me, home became an idea, a comfortable state of mind.  Choosing coffee over tea, gives me that comfort, the luxury, which perhaps I might just start calling home.

Beautiful Sadness

If I could tell you that I followed you through the barren land  The decayed forest, the people less roads. I have followed you through the heavy wind  The ruins of the dead and through the void of my heart,  To see how far I can go  To explore what I carry for myself Because only when I can let you go  I can hold myself stronger  And through this quest for the ideal soul, which you were to me I have come a long way with myself  Through this quest for the ideal soul, which you were to me I have become one  The one I wanted to be I have become one, with the journey and all its atrocities  I have become one, that may have cost the deepest grief  The grief that permeates your heart, because you know you need it  The grief which you embrace with time The grief which my friend has called to be a beautiful sadness  Because it teaches you that beauty can be felt with both filled and empty heart
