The Second Punch

 Some people would do anything to provoke you to lose your temper.

But never stoop down on their level.

Never let them indulge in their own satisfaction of seeing you getting mad.

In every battle, never agree to fight in your enemies' terms.

It is never an insult to Not prove yourself when you know it is useless to do so.

They know their strength, and if you agree to fight them in their own way, you will lose. 

In fact, you already lose the moment you gave in.

Remember...

A fight never begins in the first punch.

It always starts on the second.

So have your coffee and watch them...

As they boil in their own rage.

As they seethe with their own wrath.

 But Perfect is Not the same as being Right.

The Footnotes

 Inner peace is when they made you a villain in their own stories but you refused to be listed on the footnotes of their books.

That you choose to be at peace rather than battling over some petty and insignificant wars.

Because you know that your integrity weighs more than your reputation.

So let them write series of books about their twisted stories about you and just smile without giving a damn on their acknowledgements.

The Forgotten

 But I tried my best to always remember...

That I have to forget you.

So I forgot you now...

So damn forgotten...

Like I've never encountered you in my life.

So damn forgotten...

That a wisp of your memory...

Was like a dream that never happened even in the past lifetimes.

The Warrior Queen

So she remained silent...

Even if there's a thousand words

She has to say.

No, she's not scared.

And neither is she unwise.

For she knows that as words are strong indeed, there are times when silence is more powerful than words to be said.

After all...

She is strong for 

She is a warrior.

And she is wise for

She is a Queen.

And she knows that you don't attack the enemy's camp with  loud screams.

Strong Enough

 

But do you know what happens 

To those who do not know how to bend?

They break my dear.

But do you know the difference between those who bend and those who break?

Courage my dear. 

Courage to be strong... 

Strong enough to break.

Footnotes:

I wrote these conversations in my head while trying to sleep during my quarantine.

Bloom in Chaos

But the world is never

A perfect place to live.

Where the black is darker

There the cults and thieves.

But the world is never

A place to get lost.

Where the shadows are grayer

Bloom in Chaos.

 

Shining Colours

Cause even in the darkest night, 

We can still shine with colours.

For God will never give us pain

That we cannot conquer.

And so, if God has faith in you...

Then who are you to doubt yourself?

 

Pirouetting Colours

 May we dance with colours,

May it be rainbows or grey.

May we find joy in every hues,

May it be vibrant or pale.

May every painful turns and bends,

Every Chaos and unfortunate events,

Transform into one beautiful blend,

Of art, pirouetting shades in papers.
