Recently I came across a very interestingly written short story by Dorothy Perkins. What might seem like a hopeless romantic rant in the beginning turns out to be quiete a journey in itself throughout the story. What’s interesting here is that the entire story is based on the protagonist awaiting her ex lovers call and all the thoughts (umpteen of them) and emotions she experiences in the wait. 

As the waves touched my feet; I opened my eyes to the glistening sun.                                                   Ahead of me lay the still ocean,       And a blanket of wings above.

With the morning dew on his cheek;   Resembling a golden pearl,               Just one in a million.

I’m well used to that look, I guess that’s what happens when the man you…

Own up to the decisions that went wrong, Own up for the efforts of the mother who made you strong. Owning up is the only key to growth, Owning up not just for you, but the stakeholders aboard. Own up cause it is…

As its been long since I last wrote a poem here is something extremely dear to me. I’ve had successive number of little poems I wrote which after reading twice or thrice were discarded or are still lying somewhere in my drafts. I think I am basically just looking for some inspiration here, cause lately I have had a really blank mind regarding everything. Its more like a hollow state of trance in…
