A lonely time 

In an abyss, completely broken,

Fear and loneliness my only companions;

You came to search for me. 

Afraid to face you,

I ran away as fast as I could;

You still followed me. 

Panting and shivering,

I shouted “You won’t understand”;

You hugged me. 

Holding my hand and smiling,

You made me take a step;

I cried. 

You picked me every time I fell,

Reminded dreams long forgotten;

I started to become me again. 

We are near the ground now,

And I will start writing my unfinished song.

Mumma!

I hear the cry when I am not in the same room when you open your eyes. I roll my eyes , dropping whatever I was doing. Here comes the first in the series of commands for the day. I see you rubbing your eyes, asking if you have to go to school, and the look of sheer sadness that f...

Benighted

This song by Opeth - was daily listening for almost 2 years. Every day that I was in a job that I did not want to be in.For a paycheck, it sucked the soul out of me. The lyrics rung true every single day.

It was evening, and I was making my usual journey back from the office. Working in Delhi's Sarita Vihar while staying in a PG in Greater Noida meant my daily commute was a test of endurance - two gruelling hours one way, juggling between auto, bus, two different metro lines, and ...
