Eloquent Feelings

Trust me when I say I have seen many hues of human beings. Some people are misanthropes, some are philanthropes and some are animals. But, these people are not my concern. I am here to write about that species which camouflage their filth with humanity. They are debonairs, stalwarts and still they can not be called humans. Animals are also better than them. They are so degraded that calling them animals would make me disrespectful towards animals. This species is named as the RAPISTS. When I say rapists, I do not only include the rapists who forces the girl on the road to sex and kill her brutally. I include these people too- #The guy who tried to peep inside her clothes in the bus, rubbed his growing tool against her skin taking advantage of the crowd. He touched her curves without her permission and scared her giving grave expressions. He brushed his hands all over her back and poked 'it' behind her in to and fro motion in sync with the bus movement. #The teacher who playe...

It was not because she was hurt but it was because it had to. I guess all 'let's change our facebook passwords' relationships end this way. "I had warned you. I knew this was coming and see what have you done to us. It is not always about cheating. You know what? It is never about cheating. It has always been about insecurities. Insecurities are like parasites. Parasites suck blood out of you and insecurities suck all the love from a relationship. I know you love me but I am too tired this time. I know you did not doubt me but you need the password to build your trust in me. I mean this is not relationship. If this is a relationship, this is not a healthy one. I do not mind you checking my messages, I would ask you to log in and reply to my friends on my behalf but why do you need to 'check' my messages and feel insecured and then again stay silent for hours. I mean why the hell am I going through all these when I am being honest and loyal. I can get many guys...

The pain has overpowered me and the last spark of fire is gone. Everything is cold inside. The pain is amplifying, like the heaps of snow in winters, making it colder. I try looking inside me, it is all hollow, empty, dark, cold and silent but this darkness does not scare me anymore. I peep inside me and see my soul taking a corner inside and resting against the barriacades I have built to stop letting people in. It has lost its charm and looks tired and fragile. What have I done to my life? Is this what we call "life"? How can I call it a life when I am not living but only surviving? How can it be a life when there is no life in my life? Is the concept of happiness a myth? But, I see people smiling, are they too faking it like me? "Come, let's go for a walk." She said. I woke up from my slumber of thoughts and took my jacket to accompany her. It was a perfect pre- Christmas winter evening where I could see my breath as I exhaled it in the air. The chilled wind...

As time keeps moving on, all we are left with are the memories. The quality of life is nothing but the quality of memories we have lived in the moments that would never come back ever again. I saw him coming out of his lane as I waited for him at a distance. His eyes looked at me like I was a stranger and that gave me a feeling of never knowing him enough. I still remember his plain stoic face and cold behaviour; I knew it was going to be the last time I am meeting him. My heart was beating for him, I was breathing for him. I could not say anything but just stare at my love; he looked so good in black that I was mesmerised by his look. I forgot that we had come to discuss the end. He said, "It's over." He did not look at me, I kept smiling looking at him and tears came streaming down my cheeks. I was smiling for he was happy now and crying because a part of me was dead forever. I saw him leaving without waiting for my answer as if he was choking with burden of guilt....
