I live in the extremes of life. Even though it can be said that the closer we are to the extremes, the further we are from life. In a sense, extremes are a veiled longing for death. Extremes for an artist is to persevere and finish the project she/he’s been working at for months. But…

Heavy eyelids betray control of emotions unaccounted for. I say words that mean nothing because I speak and not write. Sounds vibrate my eardrums when she whispers loudly the three words I longed for. The longing is no longer there, though The words cut me like anxiety in disguise A modern world apocalypse it seems like to…

Sometimes you forget that reality breathes. You ask yourself if this spectacle in front of you is a painting or a dream? The scenery is beyond an impressionistic work of art. Like an echo of a time that you can almost touch, the reality fades into a daydream where sounds cease to exist and imagination…

[74] Rambling About A Change.
![[74] Rambling About A Change.](https://rahulgaurblog.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/image_01-1.jpg?w=1024)
The urge to write has never been there in me. I looked at writing regularly as something that every writer has to do to reach a level where they are fooled into believing that what they write is decent. Today, I feel an urge to write. It’s quite a new experience given my love-hate relationship…

Fear of the unknown unsettles the clarity I was happily settled in The unsettling turns into a grim excitement as ego burns the fear away into a galaxy unknown. I embark. They appear, towering 20 feet above the trees Resilient, sturdy legs and a roar that deafens even silence In hope for an unknown galaxy,…

To let monotony tire my heart I wake up. Instead, my existence is tired. A search for meaning compels me to pick up worry, confusion, frustration on the way. At last, the meaning arrives in the form of a lie My grey drizzly day ends with the quiet of my mind It’s funny how sleeping…
