She left the door ajar
and closed the curtains as she left,
like she did so many things
that I didn’t ask her to do.
Like so many things I didn’t notice.
Did I fear darkness of the room?
Did I fear drifting into sleep
no longer be sure
that this body would continue breathing?
I feared a lot.
I knew the names of imaginary insects
that crawled inside my mind.
But only she knew how to close my eyes
and close my heart
to the pain and paranoia
that only I could feel.
I woke up to curtains soaking the sunlight
and the sweet humming from next room.
And I didn’t want this humming
to go farther
than this.

Hi,
I am Nayana Nair. I'm 25. Just a crazy girl who has tons of things to talk about....not much organized thoughts sadly.
I like to talk about everything...mostly..every conversation of mine turns into a monologue....
So I decided I should start writing a blog..rather than chat....
I'm very much passionate about music, psychology and literature....
Moderate interest in science.....
I always want 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. :)

So atmospheric – you do so much with words…
Thank you for your kind words ๐ Means a lot
Glad you liked it ๐
Youโre sitting in your car
The door Iโve left ajar
Is it wrong to fear
You, when you are near?
I want to feel that dread
Confusion in my head
Suspicion and yet trust
Revulsion and yet lust
Please. Donโt drive away
Come here. Have your way
Not asking to be used
Just saying. Iโm confused.
You write so well !!! ๐
Thank you. But no. I donโt
This is beautiful like a prayer ๐๐ผ ๐
Thank you ๐ ๐
Hey you are simply beautiful with emotions you express..
