A part of me is always detached from my life,
from this world.
It is aware of everything,
it knows, but is unaffected.
As if this pain, is not mine
but someone else’s.
Or worse, it acts as if there is no pain.
It knows that I am crying
but doesn’t understand why.
It looks at these concepts.
Concepts of happiness, sadness, jealousy,
struggle and whatnot.
But these are just ideas for it.
Ideas that do not matter.
It believes that the fire I play with
can burn me, but not ‘it’.
It’s reality is different than mine.
This part of me just observes this life
as it passes by
and refuses to participate.
The only thing it does understand is that
We are here.
And how wonderful it is
to witness the beauty, this life is.
It only understands the beauty of the ruin,
our life is headed to.

Hi,
I am Nayana Nair. I'm 28. Just a person who has tons of things to talk about....not much organized thoughts sadly.
I'm interested in all forms of storytelling (though I don't have the talent for it). So I like series, movies, novels, anime, and whatnot. I'm also really passionate about music, psychology, learning languages (I just dream big, too undisciplined to makes any actual progress) and literature. I am overall just a curious person who is interested in all kinds of things, as long as they suit my taste.
I always wanted to be a writer (and also a teacher)..But I don't think I have the skills required...this blog is just my attempt at becoming the writer I always wanted to be...Blogging for few years, I have realized I am more of a poet (although, I am not sure that I am good enough for that label)...I hope I realize more about myself through writing.
Thanks for dropping by!! Hope I didn't disappoint. :)
