Dark little corners Quotes

“I look at the bright light of the day outside my window hoping to feel a ray of hope in my life. But unfortunately, I no longer understand what it looks like. Perhaps in the darkness of the casket, I will find the hope to live a peaceful and loving life again. Perhaps I will even find you there with your open arms with a bottle of wine and we would discuss which photographs we would keep for our master bedroom and which ones we would bury like the way we buried our love once. Perhaps.”

“How can I ever write poetry on passionate kisses
and intimate touch of two souls
when the intimacy itself
has wiped a part of my soul?”

“The only reason he is unavoidable to suicide
is that he wants to be alone and find peace.

“Perhaps it's a terrible thing to write to you. You are just a lone moon hanging over the sky. You don't even have your own light. Your scars remind me of my hollow nightmares. They are so deep and hideous that you have to hide and decorate yourself twice a month. There is a darkness that sleeps in the other part of you. Your whole existence sickens me.

Yet, when I look at you, I'm reminded more of myself than I see of you. The brightness reflects shades of imperfections, battles I have lost, and an unending desire to cling to someone every night, despite the millions of miles distance between my heart and hers.”

“I wish to become a star and flicker like them. I wonder, won't that be lonely again? Will I have another star's company? Do they talk to each other? They all seem so distant, as if they are reflecting me. When one of them is truly dead, I will too. Until then, I wait with my open arms for the galaxy to hit me.”

“It is said that light drives out darkness. But is it easy to be the light? To be defeated by the darkness all the time again and again. To be at his mercy and wait for it to play with yourself brutally till it is done with you and leave you feeling scared, ashamed, and alone, plagued by flashbacks of last night’s onslaught, but still keep shining for others.”
― Shubham Singhania, Dark little corners

“Every morning when the ocean wakes up, he searches for her footprints on his shore.

Did she visit him while he was asleep? Even if she did, his fate won’t let him know of her presence.”

“I think love is like a key maker of anyone's home. If given to one person, it can unlock that person's home. Once the key has been handed over to you, you are allowed to go inside and touch and play with every small or large, open or hidden thing in the house. Also, you always have a choice to stay or leave the home. However, if you choose to leave then the only way to do it is to shatter every piece you had touched or played into unrecognisable pieces. In case you decide to stay, you eventually get comfortable, as if the home that belonged to someone else is now owned by you.”

“If I leave you, won't I be leaving a part of myself too?”
