On this pride month

I have been meaning to write this for a long time now, but couldn't find the right time. So what better than the pride month? In the light of all the shitty things happening to my friends and loved ones I cannot help but ask people who torment them for reasons that are not even in their control, What is your problem? 

Let's start with 'coming out' 

From a very young age we are all taught to not steal things from others. (Oh spoiler alert!! You should do the same when you grow up to the shitty person that you are now too)
This is applicable to the rights and choices of a person too. In respecting their personal space and their choice of time and person and place to communicate their thought. I mean wouldn't you feel threatened if those rights are taken away from you? Wouldn't you feel betrayed if your own best friends fuck you over by stripping you off your rights and exposing you to a world that you are not ready to face? 
Hah you wouldn't know because you lack the human decency to respect their personal space and mental health.  Because my Darling all you think about is your own happiness and selfish motives. Oh!but aren't you the bestest friend who is concerned about your fellow pal that you are soo thoughtful about their physical and mental stability?  Your inherently good heart makes you wanna spoil their life and peace with their family even :) such a precious soul aren't you? Why Darling? Haven't made peace with your repressed Daddy or Mommy issues or what? Does that irk you that they have a happy family? You feel called out? Awww I am soo sad for you:(  
Oh here comes my favorite part!!! After half way reading this, the responsible homophobe (p.s. who finds gay porn eww and lesbian porn HWATTT)  comes for the rescue by asking the seminal question of the century: are you a lesbian?  I mean.... you talk in favor of them???  Oh how sweet!!! Aren't you a curious liddol bean, pup?

So let's keep this plain. 1. Its absolutely not your position to out someone who belong to the LGBTQIA+ community if they are closeted or is questioning their sexuality (maybe you are questioning too) you can be however close of a friend to the Individual but it is not in anyway your position or 'right' to force them into coming out⁸. 2. And if they are in a relationship (this is to any relationship straight or gay or pan or bi or anything) they are not indebted to tell you about it and you cannot be upset with them just because they wanted to be comfortable to tell you about that. 3. And oh if they come out to you be the saviour of the society that play you are and come clean to them if you have a problem with that rather than using the below average self esteem (still questioning) situation of 4th grade Oh!aunty do you know what your son did??  That is pathetic!! Hey savior?  You feel called out? Awww next time when you feel like spewing bullshit do that lying on your back. Because shit deserves the trash can that is your mouth:)

And to the parents reading this. Don't you think your child deserves to be happy? Imagine being caught in a maze calling out for help but cant find it even if rescue is in hindsight.  That is what your child feels when you fail to accept them for who they are. The same people who they trusted all their lives pathetically watching them drown in their misery. I know you  like to please the society than your children in this case and many other cases. But for once TRY and understand them. And a big salute to the parents who accept their children for what they are.

Death of a Broken Muse

I tried really hard to make you my muse , but my words failed me. I tried to bite through the pain your 'love' instilled in me, but I failed. I tried to look past the jump scares in our uncoordinated horror story ; I failed. I tried to unburden some of our choice encounters to my loved ones, but my body betrayed me. Some know a quarter of it, some a half. But no one knows the entirety. My throat clogs up when I think of you. My brain shuts down when I want to recollect "us. " Maybe there was never an "us," just you. I dreamt about you the other day; I woke up with a start. I relived a night in your claws in an interlude of my nap. Do you remember how I used to flinch away from your touch? Drift away in between "our" intimacy? Cry out loud to spare me a speck of kindness? The number of No's and then the strangled Yes that was coaxed out of me? Do you remember me curling on my bed with a pain that almost killed me? Do you remember taking me then ...

Your me

 Someone asked me why didn't it work out? If you were soo in love. I didn't have enough words to describe it. Because in the back of my head the thought that it didn't work out because I didn't let it work out haunted me. But we knew why it didn't.  Then I started the usual song and dance of how well it worked out. I remember love and what it was to be loved when I think of you. I remember my love for writing when I think of you. I remember falling in love with a language that I was soo familiar with in your love letters, poems and confessions to me. I remember reveling in the thrill of romance through the curve of your penmanship. I remember the thrum of my blood when your words used to jostle my brain cells with dopamine. I remember re-learning passion through your favourite topics. I remember you brimming with excitement seeing your favourite people.  I remember loving tea through the rim of your glasses, and then leaving it for occasions now because how dare it ...

In Memoriam

The incidence of suicides are quite high in Kerala these days. Kids, youngsters, adults, everyone and anyone. Before I used to belive that there will be that one ounce of life that would want you back in the tomorrows of your loved ones. No matter what, you can hold on to that hope and return to it. But as I am growing old, the rose tinted glasses are fading to nothingness. Now that I think about the people who are giving up on themselves, I understand them. I understand where there desperation is coming from. But try to hold on, because if you don't, no one else will. It's the harsh truth of life. We went wrong when we chased our happiness in the fleeting smiles of the ones around us. When you are content with the smiles of your kith and kin, sometimes you fail to notice the child in you who never found themselves on the receiving end of that kindness. Try to be kind to oneself first, because when death tries to dilapidate the tough but easy going persona you created, that kin...
