Your departure was like trusting the process of seasons. I never knew I’d bloom again after a terrible fall.
KANIKA CHUGHYour departure was like trusting the process of seasons. I never knew I’d bloom again after a terrible fall.
KANIKA CHUGHYou know what love is? When even the wait is fun.
KANIKA CHUGHMy anxious self always melted in your arms, then. Now your grin from another screen telling me “its going to be okay” works just the same.
KANIKA CHUGHIf ever I get lost don’t take me down that road, instead, show me the way to my home. I cannot afford to escape what I’m designed to learn.
KANIKA CHUGHStardust collected was found in the crumpled pages of my books, for I travelled in all the realms through them.
KANIKA CHUGHI scroll through the feeds mindlessly thinking about you and that if ever I crossed your mind today.
KANIKA CHUGHFluttered open the wings and flew off from my clenched hands; those butterflies always found a way to slip by just like time.
KANIKA CHUGHLips getting dried, heart pumping faster, sweat seeping through the pores, cheeks turning red. Dear summer, stop acting like my lover.
KANIKA CHUGHI expressed because you gave me enough freedom be myself around you, and thus, you deserve the same. You deserve to be heard too and not be counseled to at your attempt.
KANIKA CHUGHEmpaths interpret your silences, read beyond your smiles, feel your traumatic eyes because kindness isn’t a weakness but their mighty strength.
KANIKA CHUGHYou don’t miss me the way I’m supposed to be.
KANIKA CHUGHYou know you are with a strong person when they make you realize how much stronger you can be.
KANIKA CHUGHWords come and flow with me instantaneously. Perhaps, those were abandoned too by someone.
KANIKA CHUGHYes, heartbreak crushes you, but they also turn you into someone you as a kid always wanted to be.
KANIKA CHUGHI love the woman I have become today. The one who breathes fire and douse it all at the same time.
KANIKA CHUGHIf you’re with me, I’ll get used to it. If you’ll leave me I’ll get used to it. Choose wisely!
