That Special Someone

Someone who respects you,
treats you right, 
unconditionally loves you, 

who sees the beauty in your cracks, 
heals you, nurtures you, 
bears with your mistakes, 
forgives you, 
takes time-outs when the stress is too much 
but doesn't break the bond, 

who encourages you to be your best self, 
is your biggest motivator & cheerleader, 
celebrates your baby steps, 
has your back when you stumble and fall, 
never uses your insecurities against you, 
never puts you down or beats you up
never shames you for being yourself

who never forces you to do anything
who respects your privacy
gives you the time and space you need, 
expects nothing but to see you thrive 
in doing what you love, 
is always there to give you love and understanding 
no matter how your day went or how your life is, 

who has boundaries which you respect, 
stops you before you burn yourself out, 
acts like a sounding board for your ideas, 
gives you constructive feedback on your work, 
motivates you to be the healthiest 
and most authentic version of yourself, 

Who watches out for you, 
Who your close circles love & respect
Who is your: 
3 am friend, 
6 am good morning text, 
1 pm did you eat? , 
5 pm come home safe, 
8 pm I made a special dinner,
10 pm good night, 
all time 'I love you for who you are' person, 

who makes you feel comfortable to be yourself, 
laughs at all your jokes, 
knows all your sob stories, 
understands your triggers, anxieties and pet peeves, 
doesn't hold your past against you, 
pushes you to be better 
while giving you the belief that you are good enough.

Who is fiercely loyal and protective of you.
Who stands up for you no matter what.
Someone who is a safe home.
Someone you love spending time with
Someone who helps you feel happy and safe

And that someone who you totally deserve

Is Y O U

love you

Being your own special someone 
doesn't mean you are self centered, 
egoistic or shallow. 
It rather means 
you don't need someone to be your hero.
You can be there for others and for yourself too
It means you can survive and thrive 
by being your own Knight in Shining Armour...
and when the Universe decides to send someone special 
on your path, you will know your worth 
and how you deserve to be treated. 
You will know how to be 
a genuinely loving and supporting partner 
and will not settle for anything or anyone less

You can be an amazing person to someone else
only when you are an amazing person to yourself
To be relevant to someone else
you need to feel relevant to yourself

Love yourself
💖Love Your Goofy Self 💖

Karmic Forces (1) - Conversations

This is the first part in a 6 part fictional story series. Everything in this story is purely imaginary with inspirations from real life. Any resemblances to any person or occasion in real life is completely coincidental. 1. Conversations Tired out by the activities of the day, Miraa changed into her loose yellow t shirt and black pants, turned on the AC, curled up in her bed, comforter carelessly strewn over her feet, nose hooked inside a book, eyes and mind engrossed in its contents.  She was a 20 year old college goer, with small, brown eyes, a rather flat nose, a set of imperfect, yellowish, crooked teeth and with wavy, shoulder-length, black hair now tied in a characteristic bun, with a milky complexion. As she continued reading, a chill went down her spine. The chill had nothing to do with the atmosphere provided by the air conditioner nor with the gripping story of the book.  A feeling of being watched, almost that of being quietly examined, suddenly made her feel vulne...

Flowers

Does the flower on the plant Know its purpose in this planet Does it know that it is fragrant, Colourful and attractive A beauteous sight to behold? Does it listen to the poets  sing its praises and bask in pleasure? Does it feel the unfairness of The bees, birds and butterflies  usurping the nectar that  it worked hard to produce? Does it feel the pain of the scorching  sun, shining upon it, making it shrivel up  if too much? Does it vow to stop doing its duty,  as the world around it seems bent  on cruelly plucking its baby buds,  leaves and at times body? Does it show envy on a rival flower and seek to outdo it by becoming something it isn't? Yet the flower feels,  yet the flower knows,  that what happens does happen with no pause It goes about, day in day out Doing its duty selflessly Being a source of nourishment, care and hope Alive on its stem or dead among the leaves.

Understanding Depression

(I wrote this poem in December 2019 and I think it is a raw reflection of my thoughts then) Standing atop a tall and cold mountain Just watching your life pass by So many urgent things to do, but uncertain About your next step, you just sigh What is the point of living this meaningless life When you never get back what you give When people remember you only for your usefulness Never for your existence Frustration, aggression and hormones running high Wanting to do something to end the pain but feeling worn out, You cry Don’t let them in, don’t let them see Be that happy, dependable person that you’ve always forever been Conceal, don’t feel,  don’t let anyone know How could they know? That you’re depressed, that you’re worn out That you’re done with your fake façade That all you want is a fresh new start To be the authentic you But you cant Your imaginary fears gripping you tight Making you wonder what is wrong and right Will people accept you…will they approve When you show your tr...
