.. I was in love with someone that I can't stand to look at anymore. Some days I imagine him sipping chai next to me with a cigarette between his lips. I tell him about my day, but our chai is always done before he gets to share his. I wonder about it on my way back in the scooter, he's always had busy days. He's almost a daily muse, but I've healed I believe, it doesn't hurt anymore. Love feels like a far away fear, past wounds and shattered dreams all part of some old tale. Not again, I tell myself each day, draining away every last drop of emotion. Love to me is nothing but a distant echo, a melody for others to dance to. I met him today, after months of hiding away and realised he still has the power to ignite the embers of my soul. Loving him may have been a mistake, but just for him, maybe, I'd do it all again. I was in love with someone that I can't stand to look at anymore, I fear if I did, the fire would consume me, just like it did before, and I'm not sure I'd recover again. I fear of being burnt beyond recognition, lost in the ashes of love. Never again, I tell myself. A shield over the heart, a staff on each hand, and a fortress in front. #writingcommunity #writersofinstagram #love #lostlove #neveragain #bookstagram #quotestagram #quotes #lover #poetry #poems #globalagecaption #silverleafpoetry #writersday

It’s going to be 86 degrees here today. My grandson, his wife and their sweetest ever baby daughter are flying back to their home this evening; the house will feel empty. The gorgeous little Star of Bethlehem flowers pop up under the beech tree each spring and this morning they greeted me. All my new giant alliums were supposed to be purple but three are white. The apricot colored geranium has its first bloom. #todayinthegarden #writersgarden #writersday #womenwhowritefiction #amwritinghistoricalfiction #gardeninspirations

. We all have that pristine white dress adorned with mirror work and golden embroidery, resting peacefully on the top shelf of the almirah, neatly folded and safely stored in the same cover it was bought in. You look at it with pride in your eyes and fear in your heart, waiting for the perfect date to wear it. You are almost too scared to own it. You'd do your hair, put on your best make-up, get some matching jewellery, be on your best self when you finally wear your treasured possession.You'd show off your delicate dress and click pictures in it, capturing the flawless silhouette and the impeccable beauty. But then, your eyes go to the bottom shelf. To your extremely worn out yet incredibly comfortable blue sweatpants curled up in the wardrobe, that you've been living in for the past few months. They are your go-to option for any occasion. You prefer the comfort it offers over any of the compliments anyone's ever gonna give you. It's your chai partner, it's your riding partner, your film companion, your gym buddy. You don't have to think twice before choosing it over anything else. You wish you could wear it to work, and even to the club. It is just impossible to articulate the kind of peace and solace those pants bring. Wearing it, you are at ease. In a world obsessed with pristine white dresses, I wanna be your blue worn-out sweatpants. Your comfort, your favourite, your constant faithful sidekick. Humble and comfortable. Soft and cozy, and happy with you in silence. I wanna be the first thing you grab on, after a long day at work. I wanna be there with you on lazy Sunday afternoons, curled up on the couch watching crime series. I want to be your safe heaven, the one who knows you inside out, flaws and blows, the whole package. While white dresses would fade with time, I'd grow closer to you, each stain and tear telling a story of love and laughter. I just wanna be your comfort pants, coz amidst life's chaos and challenges a person who is willing to be worn out for you makes all the difference in the world. #writeaway #writersofinstagram #writings #lovelife #writingcommunity #loveyourself #quotes #quotestagram #globalagecaption #silverleafpoetry #writersday

Middlemarch by George Eliot (1871) Mary Ann Evans has popularly been known to split an infinitive or two. Here’s an example from Middlemarch: “They were old manufacturers, and had kept a good house for three generations, in which there [had naturally been] much intermarrying with neighbors more or less decidedly genteel.” #writers #writer #grammar #writingcommunity #writingprompts #writinginspiration #middlemarch #novels #writersday #writersofinstagram #bookstagram #books
Here are the rules: you can only step forward, never back. Sometimes, you'll see nothing but empty space. But the difference between a leap of faith and a leap of death is not what's at the bottom, it's what's at the top. Thought this would be a fun one to share. Let's see what you've got Aliens 👽 Finish this sentence: "Here are the rules: _______"
how is it, God, that you and i talk everyday without a word being said yet everything being conveyed? how is it, that i, turn back to you only when there's no other end after walking down every other path. and then how is it, that you, let me in your home with a warm welcome, while keeping me above everything else that needs your attention the most. how is it, that i, keep running in circles only to run faster to you after messing things up beyond my control. and then how is it, that you, take care of it all even before i tell you about them. how is it, that i, call myself yours without doing a thing that could justify my words. and then how is it, that you never abandon me even when i do it to myself. you love me like I'm the most pious amongst all, and i, i love you back without even comprehending the definition of love. - Maryam, talking to God.

"Ink and Insight: A Writer's Odyssey" Yeah, I am adventurous, for I am a writer, I withstand any struggle; I am a fighter. I drain all my worries to feel lighter, That is why I write, to feel brighter. Comment: The poem starts with a strong assertion of identity and purpose, highlighting the writer's resilience and motivation. I see life as living poetry, Precisely woven in a tapestry. Each differs in its mystical entry, Organized in unique symmetry. Comment: This stanza beautifully illustrates the poet's perception of life as a poetic creation, emphasizing its intricacy and harmony. The sky is a canvas, the sun its elegance, Glamorous stars immersed in its vibrance. Earth benefits, granting existence, Humans as puppets, seeking assistance. Comment: Here, the imagery of the sky, sun, stars, and Earth paints a vivid picture of the poet's view of the world, with humans portrayed as reliant beings. Writing makes me feel fresh and alive, In a world of fiction, I joyously thrive. In a world of woes, I courageously strive, Exploring and writing is my constant drive. Comment: This stanza captures the rejuvenating and empowering effect of writing, serving as a creative outlet and source of resilience in the face of life's challenges. Through my words, I have sighed, Laughed, screamed, and cried. With pen in hand, I confidently ride, It's my faithful partner, always by my side. Comment: The poet expresses the range of emotions experienced through writing, portraying the pen as a loyal companion that provides solace and strength. Writing breathes life into my soul, Amends affliction, makes me whole Feeling are set free, no need of control Poetry is my escape, my ultimate goal. . . . #poetrycommunity #WritingCommunity #streetwritersofficial #writers_around #poetstribe #poetstribe #poetsglobe #poetryhive #globalagepoetry #apoeticview #untwineme #ohmypoetry #silverleafpoetry #thegoodquote #madewords #bymepoetryasia #poemxheaven #bleedingsoulpoetry #packpoetry #writersday #poem #poetsofig #poetsofinstagram #writer #writersofinstagram #writinginspiration #words #wordsbyme #wordsarelove #writers_around #wordsofwisdom #wordstoliveby

Everything he saw merged before his eyes But before it merged Everything was distant Lost in his inner world, he stood by the riverside Holding the deadliest sword known to mankind A boat arrives and he sits The boatman is smiling The warrior is smiling So he asks ‘Why?’ The warrior recollects horrors He reflects on his inner demons He thinks he slayed them while slaying millions, the boatman smiled So again, he asked ‘Why?’ The boatman asked him to listen, The splash of the river The clean air in his nose The taste of the tea in his mouth Everything is connected, he says The warrior draws his sword He knew he didn’t feel this…bliss All he felt was victory over others All he feels now is defeat to not be able to feel what the boatman felt The boatman smiled more He asked him to be still and really listen, see, touch, hear and taste life The warrior who mastered all emotions lacked the will to stay still but he tried He saw the clouds moving like his thoughts The river flowing like his bloody veins The flowers blooming like his endless desires And the taste of tea reviving his lost soul A finger touches the point between his eyebrows and everything he is seeing merges before his eyes The connection between everything visible The souls he killed, part of his own The power he felt, a weakness inside The sword that slayed millions needed one more to die As the realization dawns The warrior’s heart grew heavy In a final act of seeking redemption, He raised the deadly sword to his own chest Blood mingled with the river’s current A crimson offering for his past deeds And as his body splashed into the depths below, He embraced the oneness he never sought The river welcomed him, The embrace gentle yet violent The boatman watched him merge into a moment of rare surrender And as the ripples faded, And the river continued its eternal dance The warrior’s spirit merged with the flow, A silent surrender to the interconnectedness of all things

A little bit about me ... other than the aforementioned (reading, writing and acquiring of probably too many books) I also enjoy outdoor swimming, very good chocolate, exploring new cities, dancing, camping and the outdoors, yoga, research as an activity in its own right, drinking tea, growing things, and when I make the time ... baking (gluten free as I have coeliac disease). Seems I'm mostly wholesome these days.

//Details// Father's face is mostly a quiet lake except when he smiles, and sends occasional ripples to it's end; I become the most attentive when that happens expecting to catch a glimpse of myself before his face settles again. I wonder if I'm still a bottom dweller. The other day I had my eyes fixed on the exposed arteries of his thinning legs. It resembled the roots of any ancient tree stretched as far as they could the flesh around turning more into soil with each passing day; I understand his desperation when he asks me to hurry up. Soil have a fear of strong wind and water flow anyway. - Madhusmita #napowrimo #napowrimo2024 #poetsofinstagram #poetryofinstagram #writingcommunity #brownhourpoetry #silverleafpoetry #writersday

// How I Realised How Afraid I Am // After a morose Saturday afternoon spent scraping the Internet for motivation and giving into easy dopamine fixes, I sought out the swimming pool so as to put myself in a good mental space before the sun decided to absolve itself of the responsibility of making life rosy. Always drawn to water, I said no to all other plans in order to steal some solitary swimming time with a nice pool party playlist that would pep me up in my laps. I had decided it was going to be serious business. I had chosen the more challenging and thus more rewarding dopamine fix, exercise. (Bonus - I could eat the planned Italian dinner guiltlessly.) So I began. Like I would have begun in a past time. I pushed off the wall with my feet and submerged my body underwater propelled like a torpedo. I expected to be an expert at it. Halfway through the lap I came up gasping for air. I did it again and again until I realised what I was doing wrong. So consumed by stress and pretension all the time, we often are in a hurry. We treat the moment we are in as if it has already passed. We want to do as much as we can, we even want to rest and relax productively. But water does not grant space between its molecules to hold the weight of your shoulders. I realised I should have stripped myself of my burdens when I removed my bath robe before getting into the pool. I realised this when I was repeatedly and impatiently gasping for air because I wasn’t allowing my body the space to truly relax - inhale, savour, and exhale. Why? Because I was afraid. Afraid of discomfort. Afraid of pain. Afraid of being unable to breathe. Afraid of time running out. Afraid of something deep within from past experiences. Afraid of how far I am from the person I want to be. And all that fear led to not breathing like I should have. I was outwardly calm, inwardly catastrophic. Continued in comments…

The town where I grew up, Does not exist, It runs along like a river, Chameleon skin natured, It stays put, but changes attire, It shows me, a solid recap, At the age of 5, Waiting at the school gate, For my mother to pick me up, And giggling when I see, The pink hue of her dupatta, I see myself at 10, When my father gives me, The handmade cardboard clock, And teaches me seconds, minutes, hours, Admist all the maths and craft, Suddenly it’s an eternity and not, In the same moment as it passes, I am sixteen now, All giggly with the group of girls, I feel is what forever means, Sad about the end of school, Feeling like a grown up, Not knowing what’s still in my cup, Eighteen comes heavy, Knocking in reality, Tinge of sadness as I step out of the house, Finding familiarity in unfamiliar-ness, Not expecting a family, and finding one, Again it’s a flash, 5.5 years consumed in all the rants, Rants that shaped up half of a decade, Ones which are dearest, I have waited for maa’s famous khichadi, But how to forget the chai and Parle G, On the nearby tapri, I am 24 now, Returning to my town, And it’s all feels same yet different, Cause the town I grew up in, Ages and takes away bits of me, Leaving behind hollows

Funny how you spend your whole life trying to feel big when the moments that truly take your breath away are the ones that make you feel small.
// 3, 2, 1 // When you don’t love me, I feel very small in this world. Like a blip that will disappear If you blink. And you blink carelessly. Thoughtlessly. In the middle of laughs. On sunny days. Making casual conversation. You don’t care if I disappear. When you don’t care about me, I feel very small in this world. Like a blip that disappears in 3, 2, 1. // Art: Pinterest #poetryofig #poetsofig #poetryofinstagram #poetryisnotdead #writingcommunity #poetrycommunity #writerscommunity #untwineme #globalagepoetry #pentupthoughts #writersday #writersflare #streetwritersofficial #bymepoetryindia
You’re stronger than you think!
//In a world full of slow pain, seeping in and out like waves, i wish for sharp cuts and quick death.// Have you ever felt pain, so ominous, that it seeps in your heart like liquid acid, burning through the rib cage, sizzling through flesh, slowly seeping inside and thumping with every beat. You lie unhinged in the pool of your own feelings, having a heart attack in slow motion. Sweat trickling down your ice cold forehead, the scream dies in your throat, and you slowly swallow that bitter lump, and close your eyes before sunrise. You open your eyes, now looking at tiny houses on the hill side, they almost look like doll houses you never liked playing with. (the resemblance is uncanny) You let a breath out, and breathe, take in as much air as your lungs can, the air is pinching your face, maybe trying to wake something up, which has been lying deep beneath, dormant for years now. Somethings stirs up, you let out a sigh. A deep longing, an ache that comes up in waves and washes over your whole being. Perhaps an almost empty conscience, is what you long for. You wonder!!! Taking a step back and absorbing the majestic beauty of mountains setting your soul free.

// Woollen Scarf Made of Heartbreak Memories // I have never been good at organising. That’s why heartbreaks are in the same drawer Where all my leftover love is stored. When I reach for some love, A woollen scarf made of heartbreak memories Makes me warm and makes my eyes sweat. I hate when this happens because I try not to cry, Not because I’m strong but because I’m weak. I’m afraid that every time I release him in tears I will love him less. And not hold him as close to my heart. I’m not afraid of losing him, I’m afraid of him not being mine to lose. So I try to stay away from the woollen scarf made of heartbreak memories. And that keeps me away from the love right next to it. That’s why it’s so cold here, That’s why I’ve lost my voice. // Art: Pinterest #poetryofig #poetsofig #poetryofinstagram #poetryisnotdead #writingcommunity #poetrycommunity #writerscommunity #untwineme #globalagepoetry #pentupthoughts #writersday #writersflare #streetwritersofficial #bymepoetryindia
I am tired of people telling me how or who I need to be. You need to be strong, less sensitive, smily even when you are sad. You need to control anger. Use your female power but don’t overdo. Act smart but don‘t make the others look bad next to you. Be superior but not arrogant. Stay approachable. Be social even if you don’t feel like it. There are so many expectations that we are all fronted with every day. And actually most of them wait that we change so that the other, our counterpart feels better. But why should be agree on this? Why should we try to be someone we are not? Why should we act as it feels most suitable for the others? Especially this „we are all so positive attitude“ even if behind this mask we all have our shit going on makes me more and more furious. I am totally for being positive as much as we can if and this is important we are feeling positive. The same is for sadness. Anger. Fear. All feelings. The so called negative emotions don‘t need to be negotiated. They need to be felt without judging and then let go of. They need to be integrated in our lifes, not artificially excluded. Because by that they will only come back much more loud and present. Yes I can be an extremely happy person. True happiness is part of me. And yes parts of me are also sad. And anxious. And angry. There are good reasons for all these emotions and they make me complete as a person. #portrait #thoughts #crete #greece #writersday #creativesunday #sundayinbed #colorphotography
// Centimetre // As you let go of my hand, There is a centimetre of space between our fingers Where the moon is visible if we hold our hands up to the sky. Where the sky is visible. The entire universe sits between us If you dare to look. That’s how monumental our love is. Yet that’s how far you have pushed me. It does not matter now - Our unclasped hands, Your warm body removed from my vicinity, Your reducing silhouette as you walk away. No distance between us Will compare to the instant we first broke apart - Our fingers a centimetre apart, A souvenir fractured in the center Unable to be pieced back together without leaving a trace of it once being broken. It does not matter How many pieces a heartbreak is made of Once the first piece has shattered. It does not matter that you are breaking my heart now. It matters that you ever did. // Art: Pinterest #poetryofig #poetsofig #poetryofinstagram #poetryisnotdead #writingcommunity #poetrycommunity #writerscommunity #untwineme #globalagepoetry #pentupthoughts #writersday #writersflare #streetwritersofficial #bymepoetryindia

Uncle Andy liked a good drink. People liked Uncle Andy, until he started good drinking. Because every sip was a commitment. Every gulp, one he could never take back. He'd stumble away from the dinner table, the sides of his lips plastered with the paste of a sweet potato mash. Hitting on the maid who was preparing dessert, or telling his 93 year old father to trust him and pour the remainder of his life savings into Bitcoin. This one time, Andy got a little real. He melted back into an arm chair and started to stare at his 6 year old nephew. Understanding full well that the kid could smell the liquor on his breath. "Listen, Timmy… There's something you need to know." The kid stood at attention. "People aren't good or bad. They have the capacity for both," he put a hand to his mouth as the bubbling in his stomach started to get a little dicey. "They do good things or bad things and on balance, hope that their lives didn't obliterate everything around them." He leaned in, closer to Timmy. "Do you understand?" He asked. "The greatest battle of good and evil exists within ourselves." And then, Uncle Andy puked out all the good and evil onto Andy's fruit bowl haircut. An orange sweet potato dressing garnished over his nephew. Everyone at the table stopped. You could hear a pin drop. Uncle Andy looked around and instantly knew. Evil had won the battle, but the war would wage on.

We live our lives in covert moments Caught in a vigilant flashlight; It's where we get to be the people Shunned by the daylight. It's where we get to be the ones That live in the moral grey zone; Where we get to indulge the whims Only ever thought of when alone. In these flashes, awash in The heady guilt of liberation, We tend to forget our virtuous tethers And give in to temptation. What does that make us, though, If not vile and contemptible? What are we, if our morality Is strictly conditional? We, who think we are ethically bound Only when people are around to see, We who sanctimoniously spew Reams of armchair philosophy; While, in our closets, hide faceless demons Rearing their hedonistic heads, Trying to wreak what havoc they can For, come sunup, they'll be dead.

Kingdom Minakey Appreciation Proud, loyal, and just a bit strict. Always ready for a debate, they can be annoying, but great to have around if you are ever in trouble. There a historical battle between Kingdom Minakey and Kingdom Kerb around being the capital Kingdom of Conniscien. Kingdom Minakey is the centre of political life in Conniscien, they are often considered the second capital of Conniscien. Minakye has one of the largest lakes in the country that crosses borders with Ebomin and is the longest bridge in the country. Kingdom Monkey is also a common place for elders to gather as it holds spiritual energy in a certain area of the Kingdom that stands beside Willow City. Many elders hold council there and it can be a place of teaching and passing. #Conniscien #Owlsguide #writer #writersofinstagram #writing #writersday #worldbuilding #author #authorsofinstagram #animalsrepresent #kingdoms #politics #legislation #politicalcentre #elders

Kingdom Ormulative Appreciation Although The capital is centred in a permanent winter landscape, built in the underground you will never find a Kingdom with more life in it. Each wall in the Capital is painted with elaborate and colourful murals, each of them by a different artist. Graffiti has its own special place here and a long history within the walls of the capital. This is the coldest kingdom in Conniscien. On their outer Kingdom branches, take a walk down the streets and you will hear music, and see upcoming or Kingdom-known artists creating their new works. Outside people have to wear warm jackets and cover themselves up from the cold, however, Kingdom Ormulative is one of the largest fashion distractions in Conniscien. tWith the greatest concentration of artists and creative energy, the biggest fashion trends in the country come from this Kingdom. #Conniscien #Owlsguide #writer #writersofinstagram #writing #writersday #worldbuilding #author #authorsofinstagram #animalsrepresent #kingdoms #muic #artist #fashion #iceandcold #snowland

Kingdom Library Appreciation This kingdom celebrates a full week of reading- used to celebrate new works and promote writing A kingdom of libraries, it has the largest concentration of literature in the country. They’re also one of the leading stained glass makers due to the historical presence scattered throughout their kingdom. From the poets to the fantasy novelists to the simple students writing an essay, the words mean everything and the written word is a gift. #Conniscien #Owlsguide #writer #writersofinstagram #writing #writersday #worldbuilding #author #authorsofinstagram #animalsrepresent #kingdoms #reading #Writing #literature
I thought as it is #worldbookday📚 that I would give you an update on where my memoir is up to. In December 2022 it was complete, I had feedback from my beta readers and I was about to send it to be edited when I realised that it wasn't ready. I had started therapy in the November and I was in the process of working on me. I knew it wasn't the right time so I left it dormant, waiting. It's now March 2024, 15 months of therapy later and I am a different person. I am so much happier than I have ever been and I have come to the realisation that it was me who wasn't ready, not the book! During the dormant phase, I had lots of memories come flooding in which included things that weren't in my original draft. I wrote them in the notes section on my phone and then carried on doing the work on me. At the writing retreat this weekend, I started collating those notes, adding in the feedback from my beta readers and writing some new anecdotes. There are a lot of things I had missed so it turns out the book wasn't ready either! Now I feel ready to finish it, I am prepared for any potential backlash and excited to share my story with the world! Watch this space 😉 Photo is of my first book a collaboration with @greyziqueenkat and 14 other incredible ladies.
