Unspoken Promises

Nanny knew all the old, dark stuff – old magic, magic that didn’t need witches, magic that was built into people and the landscape. It concerned things like death, and marriage, and betrothals. And promises that were promises even if there was no one to hear them. - I Shall Wear Midnight, Terry Pratchett

Waiting For A Train

Soon this will feel like a distant dream. Until then, may you rest in a deep and dreamless slumber. - Elise, Westworld Soft as the fabric falls over my skin, I can't help but think this is how it should be - the only way it can be.  Happiness, true happiness, is easily enough captured when you know where to look. And yet a shadow by my side reminds me, forever, that there is more to happiness than simply being happy.  I found my happiness in an ocean of tears, and I was content to drown in it. I found joy in a mirage, laughter in silence, love in the shadow of a grave. I slipped, I fell, I closed my eyes and found what felt true. Hard, cold math comes to my rescue, and I bid it go away. Hie from here, dark fiend, come to burst bubbles and dreams.  Tilt your head back, slip, slip into the spilled wishes. All the how I wishes, flitting from one pool of sunlight to another. How I, How I, How I wish I could fly. How I wish I'd never hurt again. How I w...

Throwback: Three Days Into Adulthood

Written August 12, 2010 "With great power comes great responsibility." ~ The Green Goblin,  Spiderman Losing your phone is the most annoying thing that can happen to anyone who really cannot live without theirs. Not really being used to walking around looking like I've got a sleek metal thingy growing out of one ear, I was mostly fine. But just at the first, there was this feeling of being incredibly vulnerable and naked. In such cases, it's very good to have 20 year old dudes buy you shoes. Two pairs of shoes at that. It doesn't really matter that you ' cruelly'  dump them a couple of days later. I mean, max everyone decides that you're a bitch via any of the following logical reasoning: (a) You should have given it a shot. For at least a trimester. (b) You shouldn't have led him on for a week. Why didn't you say no in the beginning? I mean, like he wouldn't have been depressed if i'd said no in the beginning. Also, ...

Mandaarame - Ohm Shanthi Oshaana Sometimes you come home to find that someone has gone and ruined every single thing for you. And then they've run away, and won't take responsibility, and take to hiding behind little girls. What do you do? How do you recoup losses, or replace damaged property? This song doesn't provide any answers in that department, if that's what you're wondering. It's just an adorable, upbeat song that shouldn't hurt to listen to, but does. The movie itself, Om Shanthi Oshana , is unique for me in that I've probably watched it like 20 times since 2015. When do I ever watch a movie (that isn't Marvel related) more than once, let alone a Malayalam movie? Since Nazriya Nazim, is when. Okay, that's not entirely true - Nivin Pauly is the big draw for me here. (On an unrelated note, does Tovino Thomas look Spanish or something? Asking for a friend.) But what is most important about this film is that it showcases a crush f...

Soon this will feel like a distant dream.  Until then, may you rest in a deep and dreamless slumber. -  Elise,  Westworld The first Taylor Swift song I ever heard was when I was in 11th grade -  I'm Only Me When I'm With You. The song didn't mean much, except for having a lovely tune. It was only after I came to college that I truly discovered Taylor Swift. Friday night beneath the stars In a field behind your yard  You and I are paintin' pictures in the sky - I'm only Me When I'm With You, Taylor Swift I have a lot of problems with the singer herself - her yo-yoing on feminism, the appropriation of other identities in her songs... But her songs are often exactly what you need.  The Way I Loved You was a ranty favourite - this one must have seen hundreds of repeat. When you seem to slip through the same kinds of situations over and over again, songs like this tend to come back into relevance. I'm not a fan of the gender normative...
