Inside

You look tired. Weary. Lanky. Upset. I see your eyes and I know it. I know you are trying. Trying to be strong. And giving all you can. It's full of selflessness. You are full of it. And yet here you are. All screwed and at the edge. Verge of giving it up. Everything around seems to resist you. Resist the change in you. And you end up doing what you think you won't ever do. You fight yourself over what is right and what is easy. It's dilemmatic. It's tough. And most importantly, it's not you. You were clear always. But no more. You feel shadowed in your own dark. But is this the end? Well, you don't know. So wait not. Keep fighting. Fight for the right. It won't be easy. Dumbuldor said so. Just laugh out loud. Look back and pat your back for the long way you have covered. And plunge inside the dark. Light it up from within. Or be a plankton. Just glow. Take it easy even when it's not. Sit back for a moment. Listen to Calum Scott telling you that there's a rhythm inside. And then...

Situation

Situation

With the passing time and so he was realizing that he wasn't made for the thing in which he was falling into. For he wasn’t meant to stay at a single place and spend his whole life in it. He wasn’t meant to stay there forever. It was not his cup of tea. Fascinations were all around him since a long time then. And he had known all the ways he can go with. The options were of no short as well. Everything he had a passion for, was in front of him and yet he was there. Stationary. Unfortunstely he had no other choice but to do what he was forced into. There was pure helplessness that he was feeling. Helpless to pull himself out of the thing he was up with. Sometimes, it is just that you have to do it. For, either it’s the only way and you have no other option. His was the same situation. Passion would serve great and he will be happy, he...

13 Reasons Why.

13 Reasons Why.

13 Reasons Why There was a time when she was ashamed. Ashamed to step out of the door. To be judged by those eyes. To be looked at, by those who owned the eyes. She didn't hate the dresses her mom chose for her, she hated wearing her own skin. She didn't hate being called a "slut" or a "whiny bitch", she hated her own name. Yet she survived. She survived the mess her life had become, she got back up everytime she was let down. She fought her own demons and untangled her tangled strings. But for how long? For how long would a heart crave for love? For how long would a heart crave for someone to see through the window amidst the walls, built by itself? How long....? Post Script: The story of Hannah Baker, live and in stereo, though a fiction, it's the darkest and the purest one I've ever read/seen. It may not be your usual TV series, but it's one that would make you re-think your world. It's one story that...

Stolen Dreams

Stolen Dreams

The worst part about today's situation, is not that we don't dream. On the contrary, we have a million dreams! Dreams, so intense that on turning true they would shake the society's foundation. The rainbow of love would shine high, Unfazed by the people's judgement no soul would cry. The unicorns would be our daily ride. A ride that we would stride with our chest swollen with pride. Ink would flow all over our skin, We would flaunt them openly with our raised chin. 9-5 would no more be a standard life, Freedom would be our very first wife. But, oh, still they say we don't dream. Little do they know, it's them who have chosen our life's every stream. Little do they know, they've stolen our favorite cake's best cream. ©The Honest Fabler ©Image Source- Google Image...
