A parent's love Each time I yelled at you, I was crying. Each time I punished you, I was hurting. Each time I pushed you away, I was bleeding. I hope you understand someday, how much I didn't want you to shed tears or bear pain. I hope you understand someday, how much I didn't want you to suffer from all the hardships. I hope you understand someday, how much I loved you through all of it, my child.

Eternally bound to this spell, My emotions got quelled, While in numbness I dwell, To feelings, I've bid farewell. Rays of light remain expelled, With the past entitled to foretell, My existence, forced into this cell, Which gradually turned into my shell. Though nothing is now left of me, I can no longer let this be, For brighter days I've known, & I can't continue to condone. Today let the waters shower, Today let new buds flower, Do you not hear it, the death knell ? For I feel again, life's marvel !

There's silence in my screams. Screams in my silence. What you cannot attain through consent, You take through violence. How vile one has to be, to sit blind to unceasing suffering? Shuttering, I try to voice my plight, Despite the constant cowering, I try to rise. You'll hold me down no more, your chains won't have any luck. I too, will stand with a head's high, as for you, your time's up. #metoo #notfeminazi #humanist #equality #societalrevolution

Sensual but not revealing. She was getting ready for a wedding. She chose this dress because she knew he likes it classy. He never gawked on plunging necklines or high slit. He carelessly read out a quote once “Classy is when a woman has everything to flaunt but she chooses not to”. She didn’t know if he was right or wrong. She knew that she has to be classy because this man likes a classy woman - That’s it! It’s been 6 years that she has even heard from him and till the date she remembers verbatim, everything he ever said. _____________ ***Back in the first few days of College - “You walked in late, very late. You walked across the room and made my heart skip a few beats. Blue rugged denim and barely tucked whit...

If you analyze with a cool head, it is very likely. °•°Kejriwal has benefitted BJP More than his party. All his decisions and oppositions have strengthened BJP. 1. He contested from Varanasi and thus divided the votes of opposition. He really made it easy for Modi there. 2. Kejriwal contested over 400 Lok Sabha seats, knowing fully well that this will divide opposition votes and help BJP. He won four seats but helped BJP on over 50 seats by dividing the votes. 3. He tried his best in Goa and Punjab to divide the votes, but could only succeed in Goa. But he created an impression that he is the alternative to BJP and lured some folks to vote for him. 4. As if this is not enough, Kejriwal has taken another U-turn and contested Gujrat. Shamelessly he pursues his goal to help BJP. 5. Instead of providing any substantial opposition to BJP, he brings up non-issues to create sympathy for Modi. First, he raked up the non-issue of Modi’s degree, then he challenged surgical strikes, and then came...
