The feeling of finishing a novel is one that goes like this: A feeling of loss coupled with a knowing that there is a need to let go. The feeling is one that any reader would understand: as they hold their breaths for that last time when they read the last pages of that good … Continue reading The feeling of finishing a novel…

Anticipation
The sky hangs a soft blue hue from out the glass wall by which I stand and watch the evening unfold. In the distance, the silhouettes of trees outline the boundary where the sky meets earth; It's leaves morph from a dark green to a deep black in the backdrop of the impending night, blurring … Continue reading Anticipation
Dear Holidays,
I am writing to you now on behalf of the countless of other students that I represent to thank you for being so kind as just to exist. Society as we know it would be impossible without you, in my paradigm of society at least. Thank you for being our saving grace from the misery … Continue reading Dear Holidays,
Dear Trees,
I love it whenever your leaves sway in the wind, leaving in its wake a swoosh and rustling of leaves. It is the sound that I often hear then and there again whenever I'd sit by the bench tables right outside that lecture theatre, just along that long walkway. It is the sound that I … Continue reading Dear Trees,

In many ways, I am contented with knowing that, maybe even liking … Continue reading The Greatest Beauty
Made For Love
Dear God, If I were, to be honest, I would say that I do not know where to begin, what to say or how to even organise my thoughts right now. I should have known better than to have written to an unknown benevolent ear I had hoped for. I should have known that it … Continue reading Made For Love
Resolve
Dear Diary, I always knew it was only a matter of time before I'd come back around to writing to you again. I guess I had known it all along. Since the moment I'd stopped writing to you months back, it had only come back to haunt me then and again. I should have known better … Continue reading Resolve
My Inevitable
Dear Blog, I am writing to you now to share my week thus far. I do hope you've had a better week than me; mine was rather rough. Oh yes, and before I forget, my apologies for not having written to you in a while. I have just been thinking how I'd write to you about … Continue reading My Inevitable
