Abandoned

By
And we're walking past a road and you see me getting tired. I stop for a while, it's not like I'd retire-- --Well, someday, for sure, but just not yet, You saw me stop, you didn't wait.  You started walking faster and saw her then. She came in her car and swept you off, I saw, and it hurt, that abandonment. I continued to walk, on the same path, Without any salt, wanting the best for you. I wanted you to be happy and I walked ahead, wanting to see you smile, soon. I got tired walking all that while, my body was shivering.  I was all alone, and my voice was quivering.  I stopped, I couldn't walk anymore, I didn't retire still, I just sat there on the road, again, Hoping that you will -- Find happiness. A while after my teary eyes, clouded with the mist of sulk, Saw a face similar to yours, tired and worn out in bulk. As it came closer, I recognized the face, but the soul I knew, Was fading away. You said that the car ran out of fuel, and sh...

Marvel's Eternals : First review, Pre-Screening

By
We are ending 2021 with a bang, ever since Marvel Studios started releasing their movies on the big screen. This October, I was able to experience Marvel's Venom 2: Let there be carnage & Shang-Chi: Legend of the ten rings. Jio's MAMI YRP [Mumbai Film Festival] made it possible for us to attend Marvel's Eternals first pre-screening on the 31st of October, 2021. The movie is set to release soon, on the 5th of November, 2021 and it has made a commotion already. Since the movie hasn't been released yet, we are NOT allowed to post spoilers. but here are some moments and plot points that I feel are worth writing about. The Plot Eternals basically follows the story of eternal beings [The Eternals] that were born on the planet Olympus, with the sole motive to protect the human race from 'monsters' [Deviants] that are on a spree to destroy human life. They serve the supreme being known as Arishem who communicates with them through a glowing sphere that lives inside...

SS Bakes - First order FULL REVIEW

By
When it comes to buying "Cakes", You might think it is all about the looks and also how it tastes- But there is a lot more to it. Here is my first "Cake Review" of a budding at-home baker that lives around my locality- SS Bakes The entire idea behind having a cake during (most) of your celebrations is more than just "kuch meetha" or "Something sweet", it is about living an experience and creating memories- and that is exactly what SSBakes does. Here are the things to look for- while buying cakes and how well SSBakes did at delivering these aspects. 1. Ingredients The ingredients should not be compromised on, since the kind of ingredient determines what goes in the body is harmful or not. The baker Simran uses heavy locally sourced fresh cream (not store-bought whipped cream) pure chocolate (coverture chocolate, not compound chocolate) and fresh fruits while baking.  Rating :  ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ 2. Freshness Simran takes her orders at least 3 days in advan...

By
I met a boy once, but he wasn't a boy People called me crazy But they won't understand . . . I met him during my darker days He didn't know my days were dark He thought it's okay He thought it's human And that's why i, I stuck around for a while . . . Then, I met him again Those were the days i was recovering He didn't know i was He thought it's human And that's why i, I stuck around for a while more . . . By now, I met him every other day Those were the days i was happy This time he knew I was He thought it's human And that's why i, I stuck around for a while longer . . . I met him every day,  Those were the days i was happier He didn't know it was because of him He thought it's human And that's why i, I felt like sticking around for longer . . . I didn't meet him for a day I was hurt this time He didn't know it was because of him He thought it's human And that's why i, I still wanted to stick around ....

Because I care

By
I'm sorry I'm sorry I don't understand what exactly do you see in them I'm sorry I'm sorry That I cannot bear to hear a single word, in their favour again I'm glad I'm glad That you have feelings deeper than the ocean and very real I'm glad I'm glad that they treat you well even if what they do is the bare minimum I'm happy I'm happy That it makes me sad sometimes because they make you smile I'm happy  I'm happy that you're ready to invest in them and actually go the extra mile I'm guilty  I'm guilty of throwing hate of throwing shade of being mean and rude I'm guilty  I'm guilty  that everyday this is on my mind, and on it I seldom brood I'm confused I'm confused for I don't understand what makes me so guilty,  happy and sad I'm sorry I'm sorry For it will never change because I will always want the better for you I'm sorry  I'm sorry For I know it's selfish but this is ...

The Soda Stall

By
It's hot these days, I need to walk and keep walking until I can quench my thirst. I walk up to a soda stall and say "Ek nimbu masala" -- I like my soda how I like my friends, refreshing and a bit 'chatpata', and yet unwanted on occasions.   Anyway, I sit upon the bench waiting for my drink, While I see a mother come around and sit in front of me. She was with her child and she looked very well off--Fair, tidy, neat and skin taken care of. Her hair in a bun that was tidier than my braid, her fingers so fragile like all the house work is done by a maid. Her child too was dressed neat, in a uniform red-and-blue. He look like an elite, wearing a pair of sunglasses too. Even after so much pomp, she sat in front of me, No class, No judgements, just sheer melancholy. She seemed rather approachable, and I had a word with her.    She didn't seem too overprotective, like the parents these days, or even me, for that matter. If I was a mother I'd want to keep my chil...

Idea of love [Paradox]

By
And that's the problem We all have a different Idea of love To some it may be heaven To some may it be hell It might be in between But if it's true, there must be pain But that's not how everything works, you know It's all a case of black and white We live in a world Where everything is extreme So are the things you feel No matter how much you want extremity It always must be Not black nor white But the greys in between About how it's never perfect You both will have to walk Towards each other, at your own pace And then, again, fall For each other, or for the idea of love... As long--as it's your call That's the problem We all have a different idea of love It's either heaven Or it's hell But nothing in between Well, that's not for me to say It's how it's always been Not found amidst the shades of grey But totally extreme They call my love a paradox And that's exactly how it seems
