Old songs and watercolors..

Yup! Old songs (in loop), some inspiration and watercolors...gives me a different kind of high!

And....


Those old songs reminded me of home
 and I deeply missed Mummy and Papa🥰🫂.

While writing this, I realised both Maa and Papa has a great taste in music. They both love meaningful old melodies and sing well too.  

Perhaps this is a new found awareness :)


I loved myself a little more today, for taking this time against all the mental chatter and distractions and for following my heart
..to sit, listen to songs, paint 🎨 and loose myself in the unfolding of the painting...

#SpecialThanks to Sromona Chakraborty for singing 'Zindagi ke safar me guzar jaate hai jo...'💕

And Atif Aslam for such soulful unplugged records.

I wish there was a wiggle room...

I wish there was a wiggle room... Between the silenced heart and  the Roaring emotions... 


I wish there was a wiggle room...

Between the strong waves of triggered hurt

And Tears struggling it's way, in the day-light


I wish there was a wiggle room...

Between the flashes of memories, itched Hard

And the sinking reality, far-apart.


I wish there was a wiggle room...

Between the lessons that life throws at us and 

The lines we seek, in-between.


I wish there was a wiggle room...

From the path I was taking and

the one I was meant to...


I wish there was a wiggle room...

Between surrender and 

Being uprooted...


I wish there was a wiggle room...

Between the literacy of 'acceptance'

And the wisdom of 'deliberate rehearsals'...


I wish there was a wiggle room...

Between a bond of faith and friendship and

that of cerritude and estrangement


I wish there was a wiggle room...

In what looked like eternity and 

Lived only to define 'mortality'.


I wish there was a wiggle room...

To breath and choose,

To walk a new path and be my-own.
