I'll be your candle, baby!

The candle still burns

The flame still lights

But oh, does it flicker

Stop the wind from blowing

Does it really matter?

For as long as the light guides me home

For as long as the heat keeps me warm

Does it matter if the candle goes out?

But hey, sooner than later it will

And then there won't be the same light tearing me apart

There will be light but the source won't be the same

There will be warmth but the provider won't be the wax

Let it burn, let it melt

Coz you won't ever know what I felt

The darkness shall disappear

I'll be able to see through it as clear

Damn, was it just a candle that burnt

And took with it more than the wax

Well, only if he had known how to save the flame

Given her a little life of his own

For she had the will to light

One blow of air, she was out of sight

7 Things Girls Need to get Right

Disclaimer- This piece is a personal opinion and should not be taken as a remark on anyone. The readers are requested to not be offended since I mean no offence at all. And if you end up being offended, the writer is not to be blamed. Thank you! I have seen a lot of girls previously but thanks to my college, I now see hundreds of them each day. And analyse them. After so much analysis and observation, I finally discovered some things that ladies and girls need to improve upon and get right. Read on. 1. Wax the underarms So this is a big big turn off for most people. Girls, you may wear sleeveless tops and dresses but know that we don't like to see the bushy region in your armpits that you least proudly show off. Ensure that you are perfectly waxed or have negligible growth the next time you decide to wear something with no sleeves. There's enough hair on your head, we don't need any more to admire. 2. Plastic straps If the government was cons...

Better Single than Sorry

Walking down the aisles at Archie's gallery, gazing at various love objects such as Teddy Bears, Cupid idols, Love birds, Together forever frames, and other love-related shit; I finally ended up picking a Happy Anniversary greeting card for my parents. If this is not the torment of Valentine's day, then I don't know what is. No, the torment isn't buying an Anniversary card, it's the struggle to find general greetings amidst this store full of red hearts and love quotes that describes a world where love is measured by objects and not emotions. If you choose 14th February to confess your feelings, that's not falling love, it's fooling in love. With due respect to Saint Valentine and Cupid, this day has become overhyped, overrated and over celebrated. How can you decide to pamper your loved one only on one day of the year and bestow all the love (pocket money) upon them? Expensive gifts and flowers only provide the sellers with one week of good business and t...

We Think We Have Time

An eerie quietness fills the room Something doesn't seem right today He is waiting for me in bed I slip into the blanket that covers his body I tell him that he needs to be well He doesn't listen to me I am yearning to hear him speak He doesn't talk much I am waiting for his words of wisdom He hardly even says anything I remind him of his strength His body is weak I feed him naan khatai and imarti each day He is thinning by the day I bring him his favourite food He doesn't eat two square meals in a day I cook him his favourite mutton biryani He can't eat two square meals in a day I bring him filter coffee from the nukkad of the street He can hardly even drink water I ask him if he'd like to dance with me He can't stand on his two feet I try to put him to sleep His eyes are tired of being shut I stay quiet for a few minutes He reaches for my hand I can't stop the tears from running do...
