She could have been : STOP FEMALE FOETICIDE

She could have been a scientist, made impossibles happen. But before she could go ahead , you reset that important button. She could have been a pilot, soared so high in miles of sky. But before she could take off, you cut the wings that could fly. She could have been a writer, ink filled…

HANGED TILL DEATH! – Guest Post by Maya Fareed

When she raised the question, She was kept in persecution, Demeaned for her proposition, Tampered for her retaliation. What is that I propose? Is it very difficult to suppose? It’s really not big request, Only asking to solve the mystery of this quest. It is still not adequate? Fruition of every predominate, Constant fear of…

Your eyes……I remember

  The days, we sat side by side, I remember your eyes beckoning me to hold you. The days, we shared a hearty laugh, I remember your eyes conveying to me the closeness of the two. The days, our arms were wrapped around each other, I remember your eyes showing the intimacy of our bond….

The worst has already passed

When you feel so lonely and can’t sleep at night, because everything gives you a fright. The pain and the sadness takes control, and once again you’re all alone. I love darkness, I am afraid of the light, the only light I love staring at, is the moonlight. I devote myself to acting happy, but…

I Saw Her Scars……

She walks through the halls, I take note of it all. She hears the names being called, She notices the lies being told. She feels the heavy atmosphere full of rumors and hidden lives. Someone lies about her and everyone else believes. She sits in the corner, the last desk of the row. Like a…

An unrealistic dream

Romance in my life is like sand, A strong gust of wind sifts it through my hand. With you, all my dreams seemed like coming true, You’ve robbed me of those, what can I now do? The hopes that we shared, the dreams that we saw, Then you turned around leaving a scar that went…

A War is Never Over

A war is never over, It can never be, The valor of the fearless, Will stay alive till the last drop of sea. ~~~ A war is never over, Though treaties be signed, The memories of the battles, Are never out of our minds. ~~~ A war is never over, So when you welcome the…

A Reminder by Rain

It was raining last night, calm, gentle rain, that tapped against my window pane, & called me back from unsettled sleep, to soothe a heart too numb to weep. I pushed my window open wide, to let the soothing rain rush inside. It caressed my cheeks, lips, eyes & hair, And for a moment I…
