Why I Write…!

I write because I want to leave the last few traces of my existence, so someone could hold onto it when my memories wisp away.

These souls who stumble over the odds of life- I want them to know that it is okay to be vulnerable, to breakdown, and, to love.

Writing brings me the ability to describe magic in near blurry words, to describe something so profound and miraculous.

And just like that, something that seems extremely out of reach will someday sit softly on your palms. And you’d gaze at it wondering how’d it happen.

I write because I want at least one person to believe in the magic that I talk about. I want them to know that- you can only learn to get away if you learn to get through.

And life is not about filling every page with adventure and sharp memories. Some pages are meant to be blank, they’re simply about unwinding, being with yourself and nowhere else.

I write so it could help someone untangle the mess, and I write for it helps me untangle the knots I’ve tied all across my soul.
