I Say I’m Fine
I’m crying… crying hard. I’ve broken everything in my room. I shout, I scream, and I don’t even know why. In anger, I slam my hand against the wall. For a second, the pain in my hand feels stronger than the pain in my heart. And then… I just get tired. “So, Kanak, how are… Continue reading

Back to Writing
It feels like I’m writing after years, and in a way, I am. The last time I updated my blog was in January, and since then, life just… happened. Exams kept me busy for four months. And when they finally ended, something else began, something I wasn’t ready for. My bade papa, my father’s elder… Continue reading

Born a Warrior
I’ve been living here for five months now. It’s a nice place — warm and safe. My tiny body is growing well. My nose, mouth, and ears are taking shape. My skeleton is hardening. I can even make different expressions. I can sense light. I can hear sounds. Yes, I am an unborn child, living… Continue reading

The Sea Inside Me
I want to breathe, but I can’t. It feels like I’m underwater, deep under the sea. I try to go up, but something pushes me down. Everything blurs, and I stop trying to save myself. My mind goes numb. I want to take breaths… maybe the last ones. It feels like everything is ending. I… Continue reading

This Is The Last Time
Once again, I felt your hand on my body. Once again, I felt death. I want to cry. I want to shout. And this time, I worked hard to do it. But your hand stopped me. Held me down. Silenced me. I feel helpless. I feel worse. I still remember, very clearly — when you… Continue reading

I’ve heard many times that long-distance relationships don’t work. Well, honestly, I don’t know much about other relationships, but I do know a lot about friendship. So here’s a small note for my friends. We live in different cities, yet our friendship feels the same. Like everyone else, we can’t hug each other in good… Continue reading

Let Them Go
Believe me, you can live without them. You don’t need those toxic people who pretend to care for you but only make your life worse. You can love yourself. Don’t waste your life on people who don’t deserve you. And if they want to go from your life, let them go. Also Read: Continue reading

No Means No
No means no — Because I said, I, a girl. No means no — Because I said, I, a friend. No means no — Because I said, I, a girlfriend. No means no — Because I said, I, a wife. No means no — Because I said, I, a sex worker. No means no —… Continue reading

Making Space for New
Today I’m sad because my mom threw out my favourite old shoes. They didn’t fit anymore, useless, maybe, but they were still my favourites. Do you have things like that, too old, unfit, but loved anyway? My mom said, “If I’d tossed them earlier, you wouldn’t feel this bad,” and… she might be right. If… Continue reading

Never Just Friends
We were never just friends. Never! We were always something more or less than that. Also Read: Continue reading

Hope Starts Everything
Life always throws us into tough situations. Sometimes, some tough situations feel like endless nights. Nothing seems worth trying again. In those moments, even a small spark can change everything. That spark is hope. Hope is the quiet belief that the darkness won’t last forever. It’s the light that stays lit when every other goes… Continue reading
