The Butterfly Effect
Every time he skips a meal,
his mother, back at home,
gets a little extra money that month,
filling her heart with abundant hope
& joy, to feed the other one.

Every time we kiss,
I get this urge to say
I love you.
From my gut to my throat,
these words travel,
reaching the tip of
my tongue.
But right then, the brain
signals to stop,
âAinât these words forbidden
in this relationshipâ,
I am reminded.
Of course yes, after-all,
I am the one
who willingly agreed to
these laid down rules.
âWhy canât you stopâ, I tell
these so called 3 magical
words fiercely.
âWhy canât YOU stopâ, they tell
me back, mockingly.
Ok! Iâm the silly one here,
I agree and roll my eyes
sheepishly as I try to
end this conversation.
Just then, I feel his lips on my neck,
and, damn! Am I doomed or
Am I doomed, I sigh,
while those 3 magical words
prep to travel up my gut,
mocking me, yet again!

In the book of my life,
youâll be the chapter that
Iâll read slowly, very slowly..! -
perfection
/pÉËfÉkÊ(É)n/
noun
a state we humans strive to achieve all our lives, concealing our originality and flaws only to fit in the society and its made up theories.
In reality, we may never achieve that state because the idea of being perfect would be equivalent to becoming a barbie doll or a ken who is totally plastic & only eye pleasing!

She felt his cold hands around her waist,
goosebumps, not only on her skin but in her soul as well, she felt.
The heat that she radiated was meant to be shared, at that moment,
she realised.
She was the warmth that he
missed all this while, at that moment,
he realised.

Her body & soul are never in sync.
The body, it seeks darkness,
for it doesnât want the scars & wounds to be seen by the world.
And the soul, it seeks light & brightness,
for it knows the scars & wounds have come from the fights
she fought alone!

You, me & the sea
Letâs go and take a dip in the sea,
for after so long, we are free.
Away from the hustle bustle of the city,
letâs soak our souls in this serenity.
Letâs sleep on the sand and stargaze tonight,
amidst the sea, so wide.
Water sparkles as the moonlight falls on it,
waves so swift as if wanting to touch our feet.
Letâs be as unapologetic as we can be, for today, its just you, me & the sea..!

What is life but irony !
#FoodForThought
@mirakee @writersnetwork @writersbayâHow ironical it is that we are seeking old school love & romance on platforms powered by AI.
If love is meant to happen without any logical reasonings , how come we are dependent on platforms running purely on logic & algorithms !â

âĄïžShe was everything that I ever wished for, everything that I ever craved for, everything that I ever needed in life.
Whenever I told her this, she would either laugh it off , unimpressed, or look away, rolling her eyes.
Yet, I felt so connected , as if she was the only one who existed.
âThatâs how she spells her charm on everyoneâ, my friends would often say, but isnât she only mine, I would think, ignoring their lines.
Then, one day, I found her in someone elseâs arms,
I couldnât hold my tears,
the words of my friends echoed in my ears.
It was then that I realized, she is âsuccessâ , not meant to stay forever, today, she may be mine but tomorrow she may move on, making someone else shine.âĄïž

đșNever underestimate anything, for what has always been seen as delicate and fragile may be the most resilient thing, growing amidst the most unfavourable circumstances.
The real beauty lies in the strength and will to grow against all the odds.đș
