What The Shadow Self Wants

Hug Drawing at GetDrawings | Free download
I want your love

Tell me you love my ideas
Tell me I did my best
Tell me that nobody else matters to you but me
Tell me you'll help clear out my fears

Give me your hand to hold on to
Give me your shoulder to cry
Give me a warm, affectionate gaze
Give me the belief that I'm the best

I know there are better people out there
With more drive, passion and love
I just want to know that I am
One person who makes your world explode with joy

Show me your acceptance of my nature
All the good, the bad and the in between
I have been taught to judge and hate my imperfection
I need your compassion for my peace

Take me to a place far away
Where the stars meet the sea
Hold my face in your gaze
As though within me, you see beauty

I don't need you to put me on a pedestal
I don't need you to put me down
I only want your acceptance, understanding and love
That tells me, no matter what, I'll be safe and sound.

Give me some sunshine 
Give me some rain
Give me another chance 
I wanna grow up once again...!

Life After

Good Morning/Afternoon/Evening/Whenever you're reading this! It's me, Maitreyi. Yeah I know, a long gap since my last post, but worth the wait! I have so many exciting things to share with you all and I can't even wait to begin. But first, the apology. I, Maitreyi K, solemnly swear that I was up to all good during my rather large break, and I hope you can let me off the hook in case you were (and hopefully are) a consistent reader.  I apologize for being away and I'd like to make up for it by sharing juicy details about my life. So, first things first, I have cleared the hardest core papers of my engineering exams! And I'm talking about concepts that were specifically created to juice the jam out of my poor brain. So that's an amazing win! Next, I prepared with blood, sweat and tears to give a crack at one of the toughest entrance exams in my country to access fine quality higher education in the field of Management. I cleared it as well.  Then I attended interv...

IPL Auctions - Mixture of Madness

Hello dear readers!!! Welcome to the 2023 IPL auction special article of our Parinaama Sports Blog. I’m gonna be sharing a few things that I feel about this year’s auction, which is going to be a mini one. That’s because we had a mega auction last year, and the next mega auction isn’t likely to come up anytime soon. Ok let’s take a step back.  Mini and mega auctions?! What’s that?! Well, you see, as I’d mentioned in the previous article, last year saw the introduction of 2 new teams, making IPL a 10-team tournament. That’s when the BCCI said to all teams – guys, mandatory shuffling of teams.  The scenario became similar to primary classes, when the principal instructs shuffling of sections, and existing students cry about missing their friends while new entrants are eager to make new friends.  Existing teams could retain only a maximum of 4 players from their squad, while the 2 new teams could randomly pick 3 players as their initial signings before the auction. F...

Why I Trust the Universe

In the isolation period that is now the norm in this pandemic afflicted era, I asked myself question upon question about who I was, what my purpose was, why I had even chosen this lifetime to enter this planet, what was the reason behind my birth, why did I have to do some regretful actions, why did I have to go through some terrifying trauma, why, why, why? And all I got in the end, quite unsurprisingly, was a headache that refused to leave me, a mother and sister who requested me to pipe down in the quest of family history and an unquenchable curiosity that threatened to burn me. Temporarily quitting my rather unsatisfying journey that gave me more questions to ponder on the illogical answers I got, made me think something was wrong with me  for wanting those answers. Or was that the case...? As I idly went down memory lane, more to experience a feeling of nostalgia and hardly to start the 'Why?' game again, a beautiful epiphany popped up which blew my mind in its simplicity ...
