Beauty

“Beauty is a flavour or fragrance that keeps everyone around fresh.” “Don’t delude yourself, for Beauty is nothing but the beginning of terror. What happens when the same person acts arrogant or misbehaves? Do we give them the licence to do so?” “Beauty is incomplete, if it does not transcend from the physical to spiritual, … Continue reading Beauty

Subject of a story

A resolute expression belies the frailty of her small frame. Lines etched deep on her face hold the key to untold stories. She remains an enigma to the village, after spending more than a year here. She prefers keeping to herself. The tightly shut doors crack a little, when she attacks a hooligan to protect … Continue reading Subject of a story

Trees

The tree swayed like a dancer moving her hips to the music. Not very long ago, it was dejected on seeing monsters with machines invade the forest. They were an evolved version of woodcutters from the previous era. Then, huge crowds of environmentalists swooped down on the monsters. It was another turn of history recorded … Continue reading Trees

I listen, I nod, I watch
murmur hmmms more hmmms. 🤐
I hear, understand – and
sometimes I don’t understand. 🤭
But still, I listen and nod
hoping they mistake not 🥴
my silence for approval
for respect is what
holds my tongue 🙏

and as all are entitled to their
opinions, freedom we call it, 👌
some voice it, some shout it,
some act on it and some of us 👍
watch the tale unfold, for our
ignorance should humble us
enough to not contribute to
that which is unknown. 😶🙃

so, I listen-I nod-remain silent,
all the while just trying
to build my life the way I want it 💭
grounded by morals,
values and…

Embrace Your Journey

Embrace your Journey ….. by Ramya Tantry

Ramya Tantry's avatarAnd Miles to go before I sleep...

In a world determined to shape you, be the master of your fate,
Change your direction overnight, don’t succumb to societal weight.
Freedom demands speaking truths that others may dread,
Embrace your uniqueness, let your authentic voice spread.

Destinations may require time, but direction is yours to claim,
Never compromise your voice, even if they challenge the mainstream.
In this journey of self-discovery, let your spirit soar and ignite,
For the greatest triumph lies in staying true to yourself, shining bright.

Symphonia: Speaking Out Of Every Line I Wrote With Scrap Paper

Speaking out of every line you wrote with scrap paper …. by Rockstar Girl

Rockstar Girl's avatarWhere Stories Can Spark Their Magic

Every line I thought pointed to another color scheme where the broken pieces came together once more than before when I left them figuring out the lines to write for themselves instead of just seeing the lines of understanding the expectations I expected from you so here are the five I want you to come through for me with:

The first I want you to know is to respect when the lines are blurred and it may be hard to understand my side of the story but I am hoping you will read all the lines of me

The second I want you to know is to be more communicative towards me and make me feel like I could say anything to you with drawing the line of getting too personal and then you close up

The third I want you to know is to consider my feelings more and…

Indira’s take on RXC #287

Indira's avatarSharing Thoughts

Prompt # 287- We have a collage to fire your imagination this week.

I bear the cross with courage and confidence,
Hide the unpleasantries under the petals of the flower
Solved the puzzles life throws brilliantly
But I'm not comfortable with loneliness
Friends inspire, motivate, encourage, share
I yearn for their company
Their presence gives me strength
I am a weakling,perhaps
Okay
I will bear the tag...

Fitting Into a Box

Fitting into a box ….by Jim Adams

newepicauthor's avatarA Unique Title For Me

Ralph Waldo Emerson an American essayist, lecturer, popular philosopher, abolitionist, and poet said, “To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment,” and although doing this may not be the greatest accomplishment ever, I think that this quote holds some merit.  We should all try to be real, keep our feet grounded, and accept the life that we have made for ourselves.  In order to be yourself, you first have to know who you are.  While some people have a strong sense of who they are, others may be left feeling that they don’t really understand their true selves.  Many people feel that the person who they are supposed to be is based on how other people perceive them and how they fit in with what societal norms say that this is what they should be.  Every person’s identity is…
