Not even as stars
By Samiyah in Poetry | Reads: 646 | Likes: 0
NOT EVEN AS STARS..  I am leaving behind my broken wings, That held me never high despite being there. I'm leaving behind my rusted ring, That gave me no feels despite being there. Did my life went on the same way?  When I pleaded you to stay.  Shame! You didn't even try,  Now w  Read More...

The Last Train Left At Midnight
By Sachi Mulki in General Literary | Reads: 645 | Likes: 0
Gasping for breath, I quickened my pace. In the dead of the night, I could hear my footsteps as my wet rubber slippers brushed against the concrete floor. The cacophony of the bustling station had waned away with the dying light. I sit on an empty-wooden bench. Ripped edges and slivers of wood, pee  Read More...

The Murderous Thoughts

He crept through the shadows of the objects hewn about in an organised fashion. The day had come to an end, but the night had just risen to its infancy.

Gravitate
By AKHIL KUMAR in Poetry | Reads: 644 | Likes: 0
Lights fades and  the sound perishes  Air now, feels much lighter to breathe. The current shall always be strange, as  I shall always gravitate to my city to the chaos That shaped me to live. Screens are bright and doors don't squeak  Antiques hangs from the wall. The space has   Read More...

Lockdown Notes
By Jyotsna Kumar in Poetry | Reads: 643 | Likes: 0
At times it feels like I’ve been pushed against a wall.  At times a safe cocoon  Away from it all. Days blend. And a sense of timelessness sets in. Busy times cohabit with empty moments.  Nothing to do and nowhere to go. Just being and resting within. But my mind, it conjures   Read More...

In times of such despair, chaos and havoc all around us; we can see how not just the governments but the world around us has come to a stand still. As the news claims it all began in Wuhan, China; there's still a lot of gaps to be filled and rumors to be shushed away. What was said to have started w  Read More...

You and I are on different parts of lanes; But we feel the same pain when our eyes drain. You got rich deeds here I even can't fullfill my needs . For you I must be an ordinary girl but for me you are my whole world; But when the wind hits my face everything is dazed away.  You seem to be my fa  Read More...

A Letter to Future Generation lovers
By Amoli Bhardwaj in Poetry | Reads: 641 | Likes: 0
We were born in a generation when technology had not suffocated the essence of love.  When calling each other five times a day was not necessary and an eleven rupee SMS pack had more excitement in it than a 1.5 GB/day data pack. When just one message in days could bring that instant blush on yo  Read More...
