Madrasum Naanum

 Chennai is an emotion for millions. Being a Chennai-vaasi is all that takes to be distinct from the rest of India. From the Marina beach ( in whatever condition it maybe) to George town, from Vepery to Royapettah, every atmosphere has a different story. And there are hundreds of hidden treasures in this humble city. Come, explore Madras with me.

A city of love,

a city of joy,

 a city of subcultures, 

a city of haves and have nots,

a city of fragrance, 

a city of muskiness,

a city of heritage,

a city of festivity,

a city for shenanigans,

a city of midnight gaiety,

And however far you are,

Chennai will definitely make you homesick.

Death of a leaf

Everyday I cry myself to sleep. 

Tears are my only companion in this lonely forsaken world. 

I have no friends. 

I have no family. 

I'm a single leaf. 

Withered and fallen. 

Who will bring me back to life ?

 I guess no one.  

Let me wither more and die. 

I experience no hugs, no kisses , no cuddles, no love. 

I experience no happiness, as my whole life is filled with immense sadness. 

I'm tired of all this. 

Oh my universe! 

Please let me die. 

Take away my life.

 I will be free from this sorrow. 

My life has already perished. 

My soul has already left this body. 

Let my body also fall. 

Fall into a deep slumber of death. 

Where nobody can judge from there. 

Death is the only way to live,

In this godforsaken world.
