It wasn't a nightmare

Kept questioning myself at each step,
Making myself think that I didn't need any help.
All those instances that made me overwhelmed,

Longing to be understood at each step,
Making myself think that it was I who misstepped.
What was scarier than the nightmares themselves,
Was the fear of not being able to realise the reality itself.

This is how all the notes were stolen.. Leaving only a long silence of the unkown.. I can feel the depth missing from my words.. When I should be glad of getting over you..

Shapes of galaxies far away appear the same, Bringing back the universe to you in your frame. By holding onto this moment of bliss, Make sure that this sense of belonging you do not miss.

Insecurity in the time of corona

While the humanity fights their battle with a virus, There is a war raging within humans that is mindless. Adversity and crisis brings out the best in people, and also the worst, but it may not be that simple. Fighting within themselves are human minds, Between what they feel versus what is told to be right. Holding back the negativity, insecurity and jealousy, During the times of a pandemic may not be a priority. Let those emotions roll in full swing this time, Because later you'll be left only with that slime. Regret and guilt won't do much good once all this will be over. It wouldn't be easy when your deeds in sleep will hover.
