Flowers bloom peacefully
they burn them up
Embers? Still breathe.

When the teacher gives instructions about the exam after it is over
Students be like

With each sapling I press into the ground
Fingers dirty, brow sweaty
My friends behind me
Watering, nurturing the plants
We are the future
Of this planet
And we'll take care of our
Only home.

Whenever I go to any book store and see shelves overflowing with books

When I wake up from the dream of a book,
I try to remain asleep by pulling the covers of fanfiction over me.

I build my self love
One instagram selfie at a time
Each glance in the mirror
Wide smiles, bright eyes
Don't fall prey to the pimple and moustache
One heart in the comments
One compliment on an outfit
My heart feels cosy
Warding off the cold winds
Of self doubt
I build myself
With the bricks
Of Beauty I
Find
See
Watch (it)
Grow
within.

Even if they're grains of sand
bathing of oceans of pain
other people are facing.
You're valid. ❤

Your words remind me of my own; when they resided only in the clouds of my dreams, when I did not have the courage to write them down and tell the world how it was like inside me.

I was your age then.
I see great potential in you and hope that you will always keep writing.

With love and best wishes,
Jahnavee.
