ABYSS


Lump in the throat making it hard to swallow
Unshed tears that threaten to fall
Hiding in fear of the sorrow inside
She masks it all with a smile.

With every breath she takes, she hurts
With every step she walks, she stumbles
She struggles to keep it all inside
Treacherous trembling lips mar that smile.

She fought like a warrior, till she won
Battered and bruised, she went on
Relentless, she broke the glass walls
The shards pierced her soul.

At one glance, she appears calm
Look carefully, she is a raging storm.
Her eyes are pale, perhaps dead
like the sea before a hurricane.

She once believed in the myth - 
Happiness comes to those who wait.
Her struggle was nothing but futile
A price she paid with her smile.

She is broken down, on her knees
Giving up with her tear - stained face
Drowning in misery, she begs for aid
Styx comes to carry her away.

Note : Too much on my mind, a little too serious and a little too dark. Only way to express what goes on.

PS. Long time no post, hopefully more to come and less desolate.
Be happy
Have fun
Love yourself first

Pain

What nobody told us  it never gets better it only gets older sometimes duller.  It stays with you like that ache that you are used to one that doesn't hurt anymore just exists. One fine day you woke up  not the same, an ache where there was none now a part of you follows you where you go grows as you grow older.

Reader

As the title says. I am a reader. I average  on mostly 1 book a day, sometimes even more. It's a hobby or you  can even call it an obsession. I need to read, I have to. When I have nothing else to do, guess what I do? Obviously read. It is like I crave stories, I crave an escape. I want to know, I want to feel, be something I never will. In reading I thrive. In books I live. These words are like food for my soul. And most importantly i read everything. Anything i can get my hands on. I love fiction- Jeffrey Archer being my favourite, John Grisham not too far behind and Suzanne Collins is always there. But recently I have been reading a lot of Romance and seems like I have fallen in love. With  the genre, not literally. So that being said, I feel it's  only fitting that I atleast review the books I have read and share my views with others. Happy reading everyone. Xoxo

Those Pricey Thakur Girls - Anuja Chauhan

My only problem with the book is... WHY didn't I read it before! This is one incredible book that literally makes you laugh out loud. It shows a very relatable and realistic image of an Indian household, though having five sisters, alphabetically named, isn't all that common. It is set in a contemporary age which still applies to the Indian society. The hyper, socially conscious mother, with the laid back father, their bickering, tension regarding the marriage of five daughters, arguments related to property, claiming their hissa or part, younger sisters living in the shadow of their elder nemesis. The lives of the sisters and their characters are as different as their names. The eldest and prettiest married rich but is dissatisfied being unable to conceive, second one wasn't that lucky in the money department but has twins and sued her own father for her hissa, third ran away a day before her marriage and has been disowned by the family, fourth is her father's fav...
