Middle of Nothingness

One of those vacuous days When your mind comes to a sharp halt There’s no left or right You are existing in the middle of everything Or middle of nothingness And it’s not the eye of the storm When all the elements and emotions Are flying frantically around you It’s like Being suspended in a...

Your Success Story

A success story is not only when you are living in huge mansions, driving fancy cars and living a crazy rich life. A success story is overcoming situations you could succumb to. Crossing those broken bridges and getting to the other side, when you were getting a massive heart attack at every step. Fighting and...

Storm

I lay hereSprawled over Under the cold ashen skyOn the dampness of the shore My broken wings Fanned out in a circleMy heartbeat Fainting in my hollow core Winds numbing and hurting My tips and toesWaiting to be swallowed aliveI can’t fight anymore The giant is galloping nowSeething tyranny in its eyesOur gaze meet for...

A Little Reminder

Never blame somebody's emotions actions and reactions on their mental health. It’s very easy.  It’s very convenient. But it’s very wrong! You invalidated their genuine response to a situation, when you would probably react in a more intense manner, when faced with the same. It makes them feel like their whole life is a lie...

The Night

I lay here cold Tethered with my rusty chains Under the studded sky Of another silent night Silence slithering on the floor Silence crawling on the wall Sounds of little demons Capering the hall When blood runs cold And bones clatter in fear Tongue dries to stone Words vanish into the air My gaze frozen...

Morning Blues

I need a toolbox for myself, since I have crossed human level of damage by miles already. My screws and springs are coming off like broken wall-e, thanks to my simple (self-destructive) coping system. I see hard day coming -> I over-occupy myself -> I drive myself to physical, mental and emotional fatigue.. I feel...

Reminder: Stories by Mental Health Warriors

Hello people of WordPress, Hope you all are doing as well as you can. I just update my posts where I gathered writers who muster courage and share their mental health struggles. Even though I add the link in the end of every post, it’s easy to miss it. So I thought I will write...

Triggers #poetry

Shards of memories Send ripples through my mind And shake my soul Shattering my heart All over again As new scars are etched Over my past wounds Old scabs are scratched Mindlessly.. Turning my body Into the blue ruins And I lay half-dead Curling into myself Or I will vapourize And lose my existence Into...

A Dreadful Trip #WritePhoto

They said travel and you will be all right. Just like suggestions about sorceries like eating healthy, socializing, working out and so on. So here I was, looking out on a stream of water gushing out of rocks with its all might only to end up in a small dark pond. Lovely fresh air that...

The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath

If you are not a fan of Sylvia Plath I suggest you skip this one. In few words this book is only novel, a semi-biography written by Sylvia Plath and basically a narration of her downward spiral, covering her suicide attempts and hospitalization. If you know anything about her life and her writing, it’s going...
