The light I can always return to-
that’s who you are.
The darkness I can always sleep in-
that’s who you are.
An amphibian who moves away
from what it will always seek
sooner or later,
who seeks two things
(or too many things) at once;
dancing with and writhing in
not one but two bodies-
that’s who I am.
Turn your face to mine
and see
which monster you have to feed today.

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. :)

It’s quite an expression of ambivalence, two people who are each yin and yang, light and shadow, dual natures “dancing with and writhing in/
not one but two bodies” as this so mysteriously and sexily puts it. It’s the magnetism of a relationship where each person is a boundless mystery to the other, but hopefully completes them with whatever they lack!
So glad you liked it 🙂
Thanks a lot dear 😀
Ahhh, your verses are such a beautiful capture of human nature and personality and moods. Most of us strive to follow our better angels but sometimes we listen to the devil too!
Bellissimo!!
