every time i found love
i felt as if all my tears have been forgotten.
but forgetting is not erasing.
it seems i cannot let go of anything that easily.
these joys can only shield me
from what I have suffered for a moment
while my soul is a lonely beautiful night,
a backdrop for my sadness to dance.
my sadness is the only part of me
that remembers the best part of my life.
my sadness is the only part of me
that will remember the best parts of you.
love it well.

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. :)

True- but is it productive to dwell so sadly about the past?
I think it is different for everyone. But I am particularly attached to the feeling of sadness (must be some sort of twisted coping mechanism of mine). I think sadness has improved me, made me see the world with more kindness. It is only when I am sad that I can look back and see all the things that I have lost, and see how magnificent they were. Personally, when I am happy, I have never looked back to see something better. Sadness has a more beautiful memory, a memory that I would want to treasure.
(I don’t think that sadness is a negative sentiment. I think every emotion of us, can help us understand this world a bit more, if only we can accept them. I think I value meaning and purpose more than happiness. Just my opinion :))
