THE DEVIL

 The Devil

The devil hides behind the door,
just out of my reach.
in his presence, 
all my dark thoughts,
come out to creep.


They torture me,
torment me,
make me want to end it all,
but that's not what I was taught,
when I was small.


I had learned to 
keep my head up 
and face a challenge, head on.


In the dark and scary night,
I was taught to put on a fight
so that's what I did,
when I couldn't take it.


I fought the devil
and showed him the alpha,
so that before taking a second step,
he would be scared.


For now, I, shall
be the tormentor,
and he my victim.

Ashley and Lucas - THE MEETING

 Ashley was sitting on a rock peacefully In a blue dress with a bouquet of lilies The god she loved, found his mistress  To be the one to help him in distress  So he gave Ash a bouquet of lilies To bid her goodbye She wished him luck and happiness And they parted their ways with no bitterness Now she sat there, content Devouring each feature of nature to all its extent  Somehow everything was grey The mist that hung over the beach astray The ocean that advanced towards her feet Grey with white foams, receded back in retreat  The grey clouds stretched till the horizon As pleasant as comfortable silence The grey weather was melancholic And the pine scent was exotic  She was staring blankly towards the sea She does that a lot lately The waves crashing towards the shore Made her want to go out there to explore She saw someone walking down the beach Though far away, he was a god from Greece  Walked towards her barefoot As though was there just to allude...

Racial Discrimination and Beauty standards Ft. Anushri Tewari

We all know about the term “racism”, we all have experienced it at some point in time, haven’t we? Sometimes intentionally or unintentionally, people discriminate against us on our origin, skin color, etc. At a point in time, I was obsessed with being fair & trust me it sucked. Everything was supposed to be about fairness; I only considered people beautiful if they were fair. Then slowly, I realized that skin color has nothing to do with being beautiful, beauty lies in different places for everyone. Nonetheless, we tend to promote "White supremacy". Why? because we have been living in a society where being fair is everything, without even realizing we promote "White supremacy”, we should stop and think about how our actions affect the people around us. Black or Asians or Indians or Russians, everyone has been discriminated at least once, for eg in India people discriminate their own people more than other country’s...for what? just because they’re dark-skinned or bel...

WHAT A BOOK CAN TEACH FT. VARANYA YADAV

Me Before You by Jojo Moyes M any a times, I feel like I’m losing control over things - over my work, my social life, my state of mind. This is when I sit back and look at my life from a different perspective. To help gain this perspective, I read books. Some people may prefer to watch movies or listen to songs. It was around such a phase that I happened to read me before you. To be honest, I didn’t know anything about the book, about the author, I didn’t even buy it. This book affected me in ways I didn’t think were possible. As I read the story of Louisa Clark and the turn of events of life I got to know that I am one of the fortunate ones. I have a decent lifestyle and enough money and awesome friends. When Lou met Will, a quadriplegic, her life changed a lot, she discovered a whole new part of herself, something that she thought had been missing.Thought the first few months were very hard and Lou thought that she wasn’t going to succeed, with time she got more comfortable around wi...
