Our Great Mother  The rich dusty skin is now getting off It's recreating the old pigments with new tinges, Capturing their modish celebrations, off lenses  Inside their heart, it cares for every breath That is never seen by the human eyes, A heavy headshell behind our back, we move, Half   Read More...

They stepped out of the mall, and it started raining. With no umbrella to take protection under, they stood near the ex  Read More...

To the world she was a ball of energy; All sparks and smiles, the happy-go-lucky But seldom people notice her stiffened shoulders, the ocean of tears behind her eyes, The ball and chain of insecurities that chained her wings  Now, now she ain't no damsel in distress,  She 's a fighter, she  Read More...

Assurances aside, what's in it for me, I had once thought. And then you said, "Baby, we are a team. We do it together. Always."

The Last Train Left At Midnight
By Sachi Mulki in General Literary | Reads: 903 | Likes: 0
Gasping for breath, I quickened my pace. In the dead of the night, I could hear my footsteps as my wet rubber slippers brushed against the concrete floor. The cacophony of the bustling station had waned away with the dying light. I sit on an empty-wooden bench. Ripped edges and slivers of wood, pee  Read More...
