Aches Sneha Pandey

The subtle aches of living, We walk over and again through time. The assuring ache of happiness, Cornering in one's eyes. The brutal ache of betrayal, Scratching through layers of insecurity. The grim hurt and hatred, With the chaos of love's insanity. The sorrow of being a strange soul With tears of loneliness. But in all ache, There is living. After every fall, There is an awakening. In the very darkness, There is a speck of light. Soul wrenching prose and poetry about true living through the coexistence of emotions and feelings in words and verses. A book about the lucid darkness of the soul and the light of hope and determination to conquer our own insecurities. Every poem speaks of pain in us. It is created to realize that there is pain, persistently in many people around us. And that, we don't suffer from it alone. We just have to know that the agony our heart bears now or did in the past has been felt by some other person too.
