The way she smiled

By -

 I remember the day I saw her for the first time

I tried so hard not to stare

At the way her eyes glistened

Brighter than the party lights 

And how effortlessly


She managed to look a little shy

A little playful and a little quirky 

All at the same time

In the midst of our first conversation 


She wanted to guess

What my favorite drink was

She looked at me curiously

And after a few seconds of silence 


She told me in a soft voice 

"You look like a dark roast coffee type of a guy."

I'll never forget

The way she smiled 


When I told her she was right

To be honest

I wasn't a coffee drinker

And I sure didn't have a favorite drink


But that day

I fell in love with dark roast coffee 

And I've been having a cup

Every single day ever since.

All the stuffed toys looking at me Wondering are you the same who you used to be?  Giggling behind my back and cuddling me again at lonely nights Innocent me, unaware of everything used to feel delight The spilled ketchup on the table drooling down drop by drop Just like my heart, which was bleeding when I was singing in pain on the rooftop They were right, change is a necessary evil But I didn't know that would attract so many devils My experiences kept getting piled up like books in a bookshelf And when I opened them up, there was so much to learn from myself At the end you've to wrap yourself in a blanket under the tree Until it blesses you with some leaves which falls on your shoulder to set you free.              ~🅢🅗🅞🅤🅡🅨🅐 🅢🅤🅖🅛🅐

Apology to Nature

By -
O' Mother Nature, I speak on behalf of the people I didn't know that the consequences would be lethal. O' how sorry I am For constructing that dam. I'm sorry for cutting that tree For having done this for free. I cared for you the least And now you consider me a beast. I'm sorry for all the pollution But now I'm searching for a solution. For I know, I have lost your trust But I also know, gaining it back is a must. I'll try in the future To bring back every little creature. No matter what it takes I'll correct all my mistakes.

Tear produced a fear

By -
It was just a tear  But so strong that I can hardly breathe any air Things in front of my eyes, I've been practicing them since I was a kid But when it's time for the action I have to stay away from it   All the dreams are crumbling for the second time in front of my eyes Now I can only see them from a distance and deep inside my heart cries These things have always been the major part of my entire life  Now the situation seperating me from them is continuously stabbing me with a knife  I wish whenever there will be a complete comeback it'll not be too late  That day I'll reply to those who used to underestimate...                                                     -Shourya Sugla
