#astitva

पानी पर पत्ते गिरने के अर्थ से भिन्न है।

जीवन को पूरी तरह पाने

और पूरी तरह दे जाने के बीच

एक पूरा मृत्यु-चिह्न है।

बाकी कविता

शब्दों से नहीं लिखी जाती,

पूरे अस्तित्व को खींचकर एक विराम की तरह

कहीं भी छोड़ दी जाती है...

I'm glad that I'm finally out. Not to the world, but to myself. I'm glad that I know who I am, and I love who I am. I've spent way too many years trying to convince myself I like girls in a "straight way". Sounds ridiculous, yeah ik.

I always thought that going to college would mean living in a completely young, hence accepting community. Boy was I wrong. As much as I don't like to admit it, to avoid being called a "snowflake" by my so called "friends", casual homophobia hurts. College was not at all that utopian society of my dreams. That's why I was literally overwhelmed with happiness when I saw that Astitva was happening. Having a support group really makes a difference in a person's life. And I can feel our campus being sensitized slowly, and being more inclusive. We'll figure it out some day.

To my past self,

And To anyone who's confused and questioning,

I know it’s hard to accept yourself, I know you don't want to be different, and you feel alone and scared. But it's okay. Everything has a way of figuring itself out. You just have to be true to yourself, and I know it’s easier said than done, but I promise you you'll be fine, and you'll love yourself for who you are.

It will be okay.

You are not alone.

give me some of younot because I’d like tobut I’d love to fallgive me some winenot because I’d like a drink,but we’d talk without filter,and let those tongues slip.give me some distance,not because I want to go away,but closeness scares me.give me some flowers,not because I’d like them,but they’d suit the grave.give me all of younot because I need youbut for the lovethat will never let us be…
