“It's like the poets say, We end up mirroring those we love, Maybe... You ended up an amalgamation of my mistakes, like the ones I've done over and over again And I'm sorry mi amor, But again, I only need the password to your heart, Then maybe, just maybe, I can figure this all out. (I say this, as I lay in front of your grave Let me move on, love I'm tired.) -Extracted from Apathetic Eyes, a Poem”

“We proceeded to make way across the mighty Hooghly River, a monstrous offshoot of the Ganges, where we contemplated for a moment, our thoughts seemingly caught in the roaring southward current; there we gazed, toward where the city transitions into mangrove jungle, and somewhere a bit further to the southwest where all the rivers split infinitely like capillaries, where those famous Bengal tigers trod among the sunderbans. Peering in that direction, Bajju gripped the vertical bars just above the horizontal pedestrian railing, breathing slowly and silently, knees locked, still, despite being on arguably the busiest and loudest bridge in the world.”

“Walking away from someone you love doesn’t break you— it changes you into someone else. With each step, you feel yourself losing something—forever. And it will never be the same— not tomorrow, not even in ten years. You have to live with the person you are now and forget the two you left behind back then: The one you loved and the one you once were— they are gone.”
