From The Quill of Suranya

Papers filled with the rendezvous of the past,  Admiring all the journals stacked up,  Remembering what was now just stories,  I had reopened my trunk of memories.  Just as our favourite books make us smile  Always in their happiest endings,  The words, now blurred, had a similar feeling.  Dust-filled secrets of a daydreamer  Unveiling as preciously as the first spell of rain in summer  The pages came with a scent of nostalgia.  The dreams we lived in the past tense, hence,  Amazingly, make the most perfect stories. - Suranya

 Have you seen the moth  Getting attracted to the fire  That burns it to ashes?  The Beloved's yearning  Burns the Devotee's heart  Into similar urns of desire.  Love is such a fire,  That burns the soul eternally,  Yet lights up the world. - Suranya

 Every time I prayed for You I broke into a thousand pieces, I couldn't endure the memories any longer, The pain was too much to take. I lost myself thinking of You; When my wishes came true, Every time you walked into my heart. Now I am not sure anymore; Is this a boon or a curse? ~ Suranya

We often get stuck on the idea of finding The One. We look for the 'missing piece of our puzzle' in all romantic relationships and seek someone to fill our flaws. Honestly, in my opinion, our souls are not flawed. We as humans can or can't do certain things others can, as per our skills and brain power. That doesn't make them our shortcomings. It just means we are made in a certain unique way. What we look for is an attraction, a companionship or a financially beneficial partnership. The concept of soul mate itself is against the idea of spirituality. Spirituality says we are complete as spirits. In that case, we don't need others to complete us. What we need is various people in different stages of our lives to satisfy our needs of the mind and body. It is on a materialistic level. And this learning and unlearning goes on through not only one, but all relationships of our life, be it with parents, relatives, friends or someone special. If you believe in the concept...

O Benevolent Heart,  Your shrine remains empty,  It bleeds of betrayal and hurt,  Yet the devotee believes.  Caged and camouflaged  Emotions die a slow death.  The Soul is unshackled,  Chains of earthly bond are shed,  Across the universe it travels in bliss,  To find the Love  You actually seek. ~ Suranya

As long as I'm writing, I will keep telling stories of You,  Through a thousand others.  How your eyes talk to mine,  How silent love conquers. About what could have been;  What we shall never be! - Suranya

Love is like a short story. The beginning of which we know, the story of which is simply complicated, and which ends at a thousand possibilities, A million questions. That's what makes it attractively gripping. ~ Suranya
