Even in the shade of the stories
I was not afraid
of being crushed
under the weight of the words
that could fall anytime.
For I know we live in a world
where even in accidents
we cannot be united with what we want
may it be life, death or love.

“United” -Nayana Nair
I take each step forward
thinking about the steps you took without me.
My heart has faith
in the love that it felt
and it knows not how to give up.
But the pain of your indifference and neglect
hits the shore made of pebbles and shells
we collected all our life,
for the one we shall love.
But tonight, I am leaving this shore,
venturing into waters that I do not know of,
to feel what you feel.
So we may be united in hatred,
if not in love.
