When My Child Asked Me About Childbirth

No, I didn’t roll my eyes or change the subject. — Let’s admit it — sex education is awkward and difficult. Or so we think. Where I come from (India), it is literally non-existent in a family. It’s a matter of modesty and pertinence, to keep the curiosity buried, to swallow the questions and to not expect answers. Back when I…

The Night Before I Died: A Posthumous Note

A Prose Poem — The night before I died, they say I was more silent than usual. I was a fairly bubbly girl, so, yes, my silence is unusual. I can understand their judgements. But no, I was not silent. I was the loudest, the most chaotic. I was struggling to keep quiet. Grappling…

On Healing

Healing does not have a deadline. — Healing does not have a deadline. It is not up to anyone to set it for the one who has been hurt. It is a journey, and journeys have destinations, not deadlines. In healing, there is only black and white. You heal or you do not. There is no halfway…

The Mold

Poetry Sunday — Raindrops needle through my petals, splice through my parched heart — I can see you smile in the dark night, I can see the bygone dreams again... I can find myself in love songs — something I didn't dare for long. The canopy of my joy is made of dark clouds…
