I wish I knew.
Mrs Dalloway by Virginia Woolf
“She would buy the flowers herself.” – This sentence alone moved me, it describes the crust of the book. It’s a book about a woman, and she explores her pursuit of happiness; she is independent and totally responsible for her own happiness metaphorically the flowers, she does not need anyone to buy her flowers. Later…
My miserable self
Drowning in my thoughts, I restrain my bare skin to touch the rain drops. I cry, I feel the heat of my tears on my cheeks, But I’m afraid of the pure rain, cold and calm. I go mad sometimes, I am out of control. I want to sleep forever, And be wide awake to…

Everything, Everything
A young adult by Nicola Yoon Do you ever wonder what your life would be like if you could just change one thing? Yes, they say it’s a cute little story about teenage love. An adorable boy and a timid (on the outside) girl. But it’s not just that. It’s not just a story of…
Butter Knife
Today, tonight. Promises, all lies. A kiss and a butter knife, I shouldn’t spoil the butter knife. A gust of wind, Hot summer afternoon. Swirling blades of cooler, That air I can’t breathe, heavenly poison. Silence and the music, Darkness and scattered light. Blood rushing in my two feet, cozy. I’m right here, in this…
Summer Breakfast
A fresh April Sunday, and stir was caused by maybe the milkman or the guy who was scheduled to take blood sample of my little sister, for I don’t know as I was deep in slumber. Summer Sundays are always crisp in the house. And by god’s grace there was no maid today for some…
Mrs Dalloway vs Universe
I slept all day. I couldn’t sleep at night. I read good lot of Stephen Hawking. I don’t feel as much as I should for the so assumed expanding universe. I feel more connected to Virgina Woolf’s Mrs Dalloway which I’ve not even read yet. Salvation lies in literature, reality is a myth. The fact that…
Computer Lab
A hundred words story Over hundred un-animated computers lying side by side in a room with big pale white walls. More than half of them are occupied with afternoon lazy students, sitting face to face with flat screens emitting light. Only if this was a lush green park with soft breeze that the mood would…
Expressions and rains
I promised myself I’ll sleep just in 2 more minutes, apparently reading quotes with my bagged eyes gave me more peace than lying comfy in my bed. Deliberately trying to search for some words to which I could relate and dissolve myself into. And when I find these words, I feel satisfied that maybe someone…
For my catastrophe is my fortune
Undoubtedly crisis do us much good. How suddenly you wake up from the fiction you’ve been running through and actually think about life. Adversity’s sweet milk philosophy. And those who loathe sadness are the one’s living in a delusion for there is no other fulfilling emotion than sadness itself. It liven us up. And this…
