The duplicitous world has set enough examples of how self-love doesn't portray selfishness rather selfishness portrays self-love.

Little did she know in the process of exploring me she would end up discovering more of herself.

Would you rather loose your ability to write or your ability to see?
And here comes one, an ineluctably lethal 'would you rather' question. Tbh, at one moment I thought of leaving this question to corrode in one corner of the mailbox but anyways here we go. Well, frankly speaking, it depends. But for time being, if there are no other options available I'd go for losing the ability to write (well, I guess it doesn't mean losing the ability to read as well) 'cause losing the ability to see 'fore turning even 20 would seemingly arrest the continuity and occurrence of some major things. For one moment I can stop appreciating beauty through my art but never in life through my senses.
Appears like asking someone if they would rather die or be dead. I dunno. Thanks for asking though!
We aren't afraid to suffer; we're scared of suffering alone.

Saying she had to be loved was an understatement; she deserved to be worshipped.

Keep kissing me with your lips, embracing me with your arms and crushing me with your thighs until I eventually melt and start flowing through your veins.

At the end of the day, the only thing you'll sigh over after making a poet fall for you is that you could not become his first love.

How is it that each time we fall in life we seek someone else in the same condition to console our inner self?
Shayan Das
Maybe sometimes we love people vehemently not because we expect that only they out of the 8 billion flesh and bloods can cleanse the bruises of our own flesh, fly us to the greatest height, or bring with them the most benign of days, but because we fear that only they amidst the herd of strangers can rip apart the same flesh, push us down from the same height, and bring the selfsame hours to an end. Perhaps we love not because we dream enough of having but because we're too scared of losing.
