The Journey

In the journey between

Screaming out loud to gain attention
To fighting back tears to avoid attention
Laughing out loud for no reason
To smiling and hiding a million reasons
Believing in fairy tales and happy endings
To accepting the harsh realities
Stealing your sibling’s chocolates
To gifting her chocolates
Grumbling about what we don’t have
To gratitude for what we have
Broken pencils
to broken hearts
Friendships are forever
To nothing lasts forever
“I want to grow up soon”
To ” I wish I was a child again”
Waiting eagerly
to waiting forever

We Grew Up!

Eivine

Hi! I’m Eivine, a writer who loves to prance around with words! Writing had been my ultimate passion ever since I learned to hold my pencil in the toddler days. Being a single child who didn’t have the luxury of YouTube, cartoons and video games of the present generation, my besties for life where books! My mother was the one who introduced me to the fantastic world of words that wove tales and poetry. One day when she returned from work, she had a big book in her hand. It was Enid Blyton’s “The Naughtiest Girl In The School.” I took it awestruck and asked her how I’m going to finish reading such a big book. She asked me to try it once and to both her and my surprise, I finished reading it in a stretch without even taking a break. That was my first step into the world of books, words, reading, and writing.
