No! I've not stolen this thought from you. I too think there's something special, something eerily beautiful about nights; nights filled with silence. I can stare at the walls for no reason. I can laugh on my own. I can scream inside my head. Well! I can even contemplate on world problems and the meaning … Continue reading Silence of the nights.

Since the dawn of the written word.
We've pondered over the how questions and sought asylum in the labels thrown around since the dawn of the written word. ‘How much can I do with someone before I can talk about it?’ ‘How close to the cliff can you get without falling off?‘ ‘How close to evil can I sneak without being labelled … Continue reading Since the dawn of the written word.
An ocean of silent words.
I try to find an ocean of silent words and let the waves carry me across to a world that accepts everyone for who they are.

The heartbeat in my silent words.
There are times when asked the question ‘Who are you?’ I don’t sound like the way I want to be heard. I claim to identify myself as a man as per the norms but not all my challenges be solved by “growing a pair.” Occasionally I get called as a reader, writer or speaker yet … Continue reading The heartbeat in my silent words.
Moments and Promises.
Those moments they wander, urge and yearn for more amidst the clouds of despair where the memories daunt and the hope awakens. Moments where my lips parted under the darkness from her freckled cheeks and my mind embraced the thoughts of distilled solitude. My promises are no more alive neither in her claims nor … Continue reading Moments and Promises.
Wonderwoman – Defying the norms.
After ‘The Dark Knight’ trilogy, Wonderwoman is the superhero film that kept me hooked. Given the fact that I’m not a comic buff, this movie taught me so much more.
