He felt like home in a world that never allowed us to belong. Three months of love, a lifetime of consequences—and a goodbye we never chose, but were forced to live with.

The Cost of Loving
A haunting reflection on unreciprocated love and the emotional toll it exacts, "Cost of Loving" lays bare the quiet devastation of yearning without return.
The Ride That Changed Everything – Part III: The Things We Couldn’t Say
Was it wrong to love him?
Was it wrong for him to love her?
Perhaps.
But they loved.
In a stolen timeline. In a forgotten city. In between morals and mistakes.
Not all love stories are meant to last.
Some are meant to awaken.
Some are meant to haunt.
And some are meant to be remembered—like monsoon rain on parched soil: wild, healing, and gone too soon.

She Bleeds, Yet Rises
An evocative painting paired with a feminist poem exploring womanhood, resistance, and the quiet strength it takes to rise every day in a patriarchal society. A must-read for lovers of art and poetry with purpose.
Just another story...
Still thinking of you…
On the other side of the door, The heaven awaits.
The coincidental accident
I knew to myself this was going to be special, and the rest is history. A happy coincidental accident it was indeed.
The den…

Look at that broken mirror
Count on yourself first, the broken mirror never lies unrehearsed.
Death should come at a cost
Not all of a sudden, not without a warning. More like Hey, you! Free this Saturday?
Your smell lingers
Our breaths grew heavy and my sight grew dim, The moonlight fell through, glistening our skin.
I heard a shallow breath, a whisper in my sleep...
Oh silly Annie, Youve ought to refrain from being the convenience whore to a spineless man.
To love you from afar, I've lost count...
Now I'm exactly where I was. Gloating their love. By they I mean lovers.
The heart is not trained To bear a loss this hard Spinning logic unexplained The battle is won unscarred
It's a journey solo to the end of the stand. If it's destined, everything will go as planned.

Turning 30 || 30 things I’ve learned till today…
Today I finally bid adieu to my 20s and embrace the 30 mark. If you'd ask the 20 year old me about turning 30... I'd probably be quizzed and anxious about it.

After the heartbeat stops
There are moments in life that don’t end loudly—no shattered glass, no final words—just a quiet stillness where something once alive… isn’t anymore. After the heartbeat stops, what remains isn’t just silence. It’s questions, it’s memory, it’s the weight of a choice that doesn’t fade as easily as time promises. This is not a story about right or wrong. It’s about what it feels like to live in the space after.
The Night the Mountains Roared | Surviving the 2023 Sikkim Floods
We went to Sikkim for a holiday. We came back after days without food, nights without light, and learning how thin the line between awe and fear really is.
When the 2023 floods tore through the mountains, travel plans turned into survival, strangers into family, and silence into the loudest thing I’ve ever heard.
This is not a travel story. This is what it means to survive when the mountains stop whispering.
Love, Arriving Early
A meditation on waiting, love, and the quiet chaos of arriving early—for someone who matters. An airport, a delayed baggage belt, a familiar smile, and the tender recklessness of being in love.
