but then
who said birds don't
fly in their cage
I've seen them fluttering
and hoping
for a little more life;

how often do you
visit open skys
and not shed a tear ?

my poems under your tongue are crying in pain, you don't spit them out well enough; let them loose before they burn your mouth to ashes.

[Kavya Sharma @Kavs_20]

it takes great amount of emotional intelligence to understand and appreciate poetry in its truest form.

[Kavya Sharma @Kavs_20]

And then there are people who believe that women started feminism for privilege, not equality :)

[Kavya Sharma @Kavs_20]

For some, healing is a more personal emotion than love.

The most beautiful of poems have come out of the most destructive minds.

[Kavya Sharma @Kavs_20]

in all these years of writing poetry, romantic poems still have the charm and they are still the most difficult to write because they are so so simple, it's not even funny.

[Kavya Sharma @Kavs_20]

A lot of what you read and connect 'not' with comes from an artist's personal experience and his/her courage to materialise it through creativity.

If not the art, respect the artist.

[Kavya Sharma @Kavs_20]

may poetry continue to heal you, break you, shock you, warm you till eternity and beyond.

Happy National Poetry month to you all :)

[Kavya Sharma @Kavs_20]

there is no way you can write good poetry without being involved- in all aspects of it.

[Kavya Sharma @Kavs_20]

social media validation is the biggest curse our generation is facing.

[Kavya Sharma @Kavs_20]

Every author you've ever met has lied to you. I mean it. Every.

[Kavya Sharma @Kavs_20]

the harder you try proving your existence; the easier it is for you to be lost in it.

[Kavya Sharma @Kavs_20]

Have you ever felt so happy and warm from inside it doesn't even make sense ?

[Kavya Sharma @Kavs_20]

How privileged are you to be apolitical ?
