Another Ardour


They take you to a distant state
A place for which you couldn't wait.
You are ready to bet your life on it
For the flame inside your heart bright lit,
The happiness radiates, brightens up our soul
This zest inside wants to meet the furthest goal.

A Letter to a Lethal Timid

"I quietly but persistently punished myself, shredded off the skin until nothing was left except the scent of blood on my fingers. I worked very hard to not let the black spot grow into cancer and slosh me down. On countless occasions, your needling, needless remarks pricked my conscience, and my head bursted like a dropped watermelon. You, dear hater, would never know severely have I been sliced by your venomous words. My vigor drained by the end of the day only to hear the slow pulse of its job half done. Saddened, I would scratch my wounds too deep for the healing and then let them open. I remember the nights when my insecurities hemmed in and my sense of fear filled my mouth with hot, dry air and made my body light. I used to watch you with eyes of hate before I realized that you are nothing but a pile of uncemented bricks that would never take a form, and I pitied you. I could clearly hear your enviousness and malice thudding loudly like a horse’s hoof...

Dispatch to a Friend

So this friend came to me the other day and accused me of being a paradox. He complained that your scripts talk about being vigorous and iron-willed while you, on the other hand, seem to be feeble and obscure; that you are a contradiction, full of falsehood and you drop lines on the piece of paper that you’re literally not. I let him had it at that while, because I believe I am good at pushing a pencil and am not blessed with the gift of gab. My dear friend, to you I write, I am a meek valiant. I sob at the sofa in the middle of the day, panting and yearning for something far-fetched. I am a miscalculation of theories and sentiments. While I scribble dauntless and lionhearted beliefs, I might be the most timid and reticent human being you have ever met. I am the one who fragmentizes inward and sheds bitter tears in a dark corner, rather than howling back. This ideal, prototypical girl in the back of my mind that I write about and that, in the heart of hearts, I aspire to ...

My Story

I am writing a book, that would glorify the songs of blue and sing praises of the daily heroic humdrums that I valiantly triumphed through; A book that would lionize the obscure walks I took like the moon walking towards its eclipse and celebrate the pages of remarkable sunsets when no rain could quench the thirst of the somber lips. I am writing a book, that would dedicate odes to the setting sun and to those stranded quests for the hearts of stars at the loss of a loved one; That would not make me feel miserable for the choices I accepted but never made and would put me on a pedestal for that melancholy smile, I so beautifully masquerade. I am writing a book, that would contain tragedies in pages I would want to tear off, but will not for when I look back to the finished stories I would realize that this memoir is mine, and those half-written characters were so paralyzed to have shaped my final plot; That would underline the days when it was scorching ...
