The Blank Page

The Blank Page
The outer world sleeps never, shouting on top of its voice;
And why wouldn’t it? The night’s there to imbibe this noise;
The blank page has a death stare at me, just as I might have for it.

Maybe it would have chores pending, deadlines calling;
And is in a rush to reach somewhere but is still here–maybe where it doesn’t fit?
It could be empty and chipped, full of slits and painted all white without a zit.

Wouldn’t it like to express itself with letters and paint with all colors and shades?
Ever wondered why the page is so silent and remains that way!
Maybe it knows what it feels not being heard when there’s much to say.

My dear page you express yourself when I pour my feelings on you;
And you paint yourself with shades when tears drop and mix with the blue;
Well, my selfless page, you will never remain unheard for I’ll never stop writing on you.

This poem was written as I was busy doing nothing, thinking of writing something but without a topic. I hope everyone reading this smiles, you deserve all the happiness J Good day people! Live, laugh, enjoy and share infinite love!

Relationships and closeness

-
Relationships and closeness As I sit on my laptop to write this article, I have had a lot of relationships spoiled being too close to or too distant from people. I hope your social and personal life is all “well” and “good” as you’re reading this but if it is not, it’s alright you’re not alone. Relationships or dealing with people must have never been easier but as I’m growing older, my friend/relative circle is shrinking too. I’m not sure if it is a problem with me or the world around but finding genuine people who do not wish bad if not good for others has been a struggle lately. And in instances when I do not find any, I decide to stay alone. But is boycotting everyone altogether who no longer inspires, serves, makes you grow or feel happy the right solution?

Why modern relationships do not work?

Why modern relationships do not work? I hope most of us have been in love at some point or the other in our lives and often we might have encountered questions such as ‘Are you in true love?’ from our friends. Time and again ‘true love’ has been used as a cliché to taunt us especially when we do not comply with them. But what actually is true love and how important is it for a relationship to become sustainable? Before I dive in to give some insights about true love, let me talk about modern romantic relationships first. It is evident that the contemporary society provides a lot of distractions. Be it by means of a social function or an Instagram story people are going to cross paths with us all the time. It is beneficial in a sense you get a lot of chances to strike a conversation with somebody who you find attractive. However, there are equal possibilities of you getting allured with someone and vice versa even when you do not want to at first place. The foundation of most of t...

Emotional Intimacy

-
  Emotional Intimacy Do you ever feel left out among your friends with whom you have been together since childhood? While some might say that you have become a recluse who can’t even get along with your close peers, to me it is normal to feel a little lost especially if you strive for emotional intimacy but are deprived of in your friendship. Now the question may arise, what exactly is emotional intimacy and how important is it in a relationship? According to Sanam Hafeez, a neuropsychologist emotional intimacy is to allow oneself to connect more deeply with his/her partner through actions that express feelings, vulnerabilities, and trust. Much like physical intimacy, emotional intimacy is variable with time as well as from one relationship to another. It allows us to feel closeness with others thereby enabling sharing of personal feelings that go along with expectations of understanding, appreciation and demonstration of caring. Emotional intimacy can be expressed in both im...
