Sleep Eludes
It is 02:06 hrs and it’s rather … LOUD. To my left, the electric heater screams loudly and the stillness around me nags my brain. To silence the disparate faculty in my cranium would be an achievement I’m yet to attain this year! However, tonight, there seems a need to finally convene a meeting. SoContinue reading “Sleep Eludes”

Ms X is looking at a reflection of herself in a mirror. She is wearing a white dress and a high heel. Ms Zee comes to stand right next to her, wearing the dark version of the same dress but there’s something about Zee’s dress that stands out and it doesn’t seem to have anythingContinue reading “The irrationality of jealousy; focusing on the wrong variable.”
Two steps back, one step forward; a propelling paradox?
I would rather bathe in the sun Where my cheeks need no cheer to inflate I would rather not feel the pain of a thorn For is pain not just a reminder of an internal mishap? But life is full of contrasts. How does one perceive a shadow if it is not outlined by aContinue reading “Two steps back, one step forward; a propelling paradox?”
