Nightmare.

The night falls. Thunder striking the sky, heavy rain pelting the brick roof of his lake house. He was shivering even in summer, the night was terrorizing for him. He walked into the kitchen to brew some coffee, he placed himself on the kitchen counter and scrolled through his phone when suddenly, . . . …

Drowned

I drowned.   I drowned like I had never before.   Lungs filled up to the brim.   I drowned like I never knew how to swim.   I let go of your hand & just stared.   Loosing myself in your gaze.   I drowned in the ocean of daze.   Unaware of the …

Abandoned

"Shh! Don't cry, I will protect you." She hushed up, little hiccups escaping her quivering lips; it was one of those nights when she saw her father beating her mum into a pulp. Her brother, Elias, holding her in his arms, trying to make her quiet or she would be the one getting punched too. Things …

Gone….

You broke my heart And claimed my soul Yet you are gone Like wind which never blew I tried holding on When other moved on You kicked me to the edge And watched me free fall Ripped our photos like memories Burned it into ashes like forest trees Yet you claim to be hurt When …

Why?

A thought crossed my mind, If the sun is so bright, Why it still gets masked at night. Why a melody only feels good, And not so much after some time. Why beauty is not constant, And why not everyone beholds it. Why life is not so perfect, And why we try to pretend it …

Tenure

Home is where the heart is; they say. I believe it. But as a med student I also know logically that heart is inside a membranous sheath called pericardium, then it is situated between the lungs and enclosed by the ribcage with a muscular layer on top. heart is surrounded and protected; well physically speaking, …

wondering life.

Sometimes I wonder if the rain is more enjoyable than the warmth of sun? If the daylight makes it more easier to forget or the deep slumber of night? If the city lights are soothing or the lantern and stars? If the simple taste of coffee can relax the uproar in my mind? If happiness …

Humanity dies.

With big doe eyes, He looks up to the sky, Hands raised and he sighs, Blood oozing from his thigh, A prayer forming in his mind, He is too tired to sit upright, His murmurs are of good-byes, And with last prayer escaping his lips...he dies. Story of a Syrian boy.    

Believe….

What is a believer? One who follows religion? One who believes in God? "Yes". Indeed that's who a believer is. But a believer is much more than that too; the one who believes that love exist, the one who believes the stars exist, the one who believes that we are mud sculptures, the one who …

I miss him.

The last night he spent on earth, he advised his youngest son to take care of his mother, and ordered his wife not to let go of the house helper. He prayed in the morning one last time and his soul departed from the earth. Seventy years, that's all he spent on this planet. The …

Let go.

Put a lid on it, Smile and nod your head, Agree to all bull-crap, Don't say a thing.. Bottle it up. Babe that's enough. Lean on air, You will come up, Suffocation, time is up! Now unseal your lips, Speak your mind, Unload, unleash and stretch, Look at the dipper, Make a wish, Breath fuller, …

Be Okay.

If you are irritated by every rub, how will you be polished?  _Rumi Life is a cycle for some, a pattern for some, a disgrace for some and a happy place for some. There is one quote which I will paraphrase because I don't quite remember the exact words but it said that if we …

Hell

What is next to ecstasy?" "Pain." "What is next to pain?" "Nothingness." "What is next to nothingness?" "Hell." _Peer-e-kamil by Umera Ahmed. This short composition is inspired by the above quote. Hope you guys enjoy it.   Painted blue and black, Untill neck, Cracked skull and shin, No mercy yet, Adrenaline rush, And then hush-hush, …

LOST.

So my last post was a short story called abandoned. Do check it out. I wrote this letter/some what motivational piece. Hope you all enjoy it.    Last year, We met at the start of spring. The trees adorn with the beauty of flowers and leaves. And you, you were calm like the ocean before …

FRIENDS

Friends.... What does it mean? In a light manner; it means someone who you can enjoy the moments. Deeply it means a person who will be there for you through thick and thin, rise and fall, success and failure. But how would we ever know, whom is worthy enough to be called a FRIEND! Friend …

Read…..

Its been a long time since I have read a book  or novel. A year and a half to be exact. At that time I was at my lowest emotionally and everything I ever liked, didn't matter anymore. What happened seem petty when I look back now but at that moment it was a source …
