    Planning my next few months…!

    What is the biggest challenge you will face in the next six months?

    Hey…!

    I hope all of you are doing well…!

    The last nights prompt took away a lot of things that I wanted to say today…!

    🙈

    But, after a long time a prompt has come in that I haven’t answered and this has given me some ideas…!

    And a break from me posting my unusual stuff that I write…!

    Coming back to the prompt

    Biggest challenge that I will face in the next six months

    It’s a bit crazy how the world moves, because up until beginning of the year 2026;

    I didn’t have any concrete plans, they were still to lay low, work hard in the shadows and come back out with more power in a year or two…!

    Making this year of struggles and winning some personal battles with myself and things that hold me back…!

    Until, the marriage of my sister was decided in the month of April…!

    For which everything has sprung into action and there are things happening that are done by me and taken into account to guide anyone who comes to me in the near future for help on how to manage or do a programme like this one…!

    There will be many things that will happen and they will change my viewpoint on now to view people, their behavior and also how those who will sit in our blind spots and fill the ears of our relatives and question how we were able to afford these things…!

    Everything will happen…!

    Including us missing the presence of our father as all of this happens…!🥲

    A huge lump that all of us carry within our hearts and can never ever seem to fill…!

    Otherwise it’s all good and future will be the witness to all that’s yet to come…!

    Cheers 🥂

  • A busy day and an advice to my younger self…!

    A busy day and an advice to my younger self…!

    What advice would you give to your teenage self?

    Hey…!

    I hope all of you are doing well…!

    I’m making this prompt at 8:32 at night,

    A nice change of pace this is…!

    There are a lot of things that I had to do today, one of them being looking for banquets for my sister’s wedding function…!

    And let me tell you this,

    The prices are outrageous, even if we have a programme for lunch they are quoting 3.5 to 4 lakhs for a programme that lasts 6 hours—

    10:30 am to 4:30 pm…!

    I’ve been dead tired spending my evening from these past few weeks searching one or two banquets each day…!

    Things that you have to do when you don’t have a father figure in your life…! 🤷

    Well it would have been a better support and something of a confidence booster but,

    There are something that you have to do on your own and life pushes you to do them too…!

    Coming back to the prompt

    An advice to my teenage self…!

    Spend as much time as you can with your parents and grandparents because they aren’t going to be in your life much longer…!

    And no matter how much the difference comes in within your thinking and theirs, you can nod your head and continue to work on things that you like, things that you love…!

    Even if this won’t give you money or earning in the short run it will help you get experience and a way to live this life better…!

    They won’t be available for all the time so just enjoy their company and the time that you can spend with them…!

    Maybe ask them about their childhood;

    How were they brought up and what they used to do…!

    You’ll for sure hear some tales that you can tell your kids someday and if you’re fortunate enough you can get your kids to hear them from them directly…!

    Well not in my case but it can be possible in yours…!

    Well don’t forget about telling your younger self about buying bitcoin in bulk and keeping it until 2026…!

    Remember the last advice and this is a last moment update(🙏🏻)

    Cheers 🥂

  • Eyes of children who never forget…!

    Eyes of children who never forget…!

    What bores you?

    Hey…!

    I hope all of you are doing well…!

    I don’t know how to tell you this but being consistent on this app has made me come to terms with the fact that most of the prompts are recycled…!

    This prompt was answered by me back in 2025 somewhere in the month of February…!

    I really got bored of the thing that I have to recycle,

    Well not recycle but sell you the same prompt yet again which I think hurts my creative front because of a promise I made to myself before I began writing…!

    So instead of the prompt you get one of my write ups today too,

    But it will be disguised in the form of prompt to give all of this a push that it definitely needs…!!!




    Eyes of children who never forget…


    There linger some feelings,
    Some emotions unspoken of;


    Some words with-held,
    Not brought to these lips,
    To keep those dear to us near…

    Whom we considered our own,
    Once pure,
    Now they won’t stay with us,
    Those known faces became unknown…

    They call our eyes droopy,
    A face that seems off,
    Hasn’t witnessed a shread of happiness in years,
    Dark circles that grow day by day,
    And the light of the eyes that diminishes as each day pass…!

    The eyes,
    Those eyes never forget…

    Unkept hair,
    A bunch of facial hair that grows haphazardly;
    Those dead-fish eyes that scare everyone,
    And staring into them feels like a slipping slope;


    Once you fell into them—surrounded by darkness you feel,
    With no clue what hurt them or continues to,
    they walk away from you without a care in this world…

    A sense of relief is seen in them when they indulge in their vice,
    A line of pure white,
    A pill with a happy face,
    A tab or two,
    Or a bottle that’s waiting to be emptied;

    When the white of the eyes turn red,
    Bloodshot—
    Only then,
    In a sense of euphoria,
    A sliver of smile comes on the face…

    On rare occasions we wish,
    These vices weren’t the only thing that made us smile,
    Made us feel— More human,

    But;


    As the buzz wears off,
    We are back to our self,
    Our usual miserable selves…


    With those eyes,
    We stare,
    With a sense that tries to find a meaning in everything;

    A thought comes to our mind,
    Here we are—
    “Here we are still alive…”

    Those are the eyes of children who never forget…



    Cheers 🥂

  • A question about prompts and thoughts I get when I look up towards the sky…

    A question about prompts and thoughts I get when I look up towards the sky…



    Another already answered prompt telling me to cherry pick one of my draft posts…!


    I’d like to ask this to you,

    Do your opinions on things change within a single year or it takes a bigger/smaller span than that…?

    Real question of which I’d like a real answer…!



    When I look towards the sky…

    I’d like to talk to G0d,
    But the sky’s empty.

    I’d tell him how they fear his name during the day,
    When the sun’s up,
    Just above their heads,
    But as soon as it sets,
    They come out of their veils of fear and shyness..


    They skilfully remove their masks,
    And show their real faces,
    Those which can’t be faced without covering one’s eyes,
    Or having to spit something out of your mouth like when you taste something distasteful…


    These veils,
    Cover the horrors they show to their victims,
    By lacing someone’s drink,
    Or abduct them up as they’re returning home to their safe haven—

    But no,
    They had some other plans on their minds…


    As soon as they are done with the bodies alive or not that they caught,
    They throw them out,
    Dispose of them as waste and leave them to rot,
    Or die as a consequence of their actions…


    The very next morning,
    They pick their masks and wear them;


    To cover themselves up in a veil of deceit—

    A material that makes them immune to the normal eye,
    But—

    On seeing within,
    Deep within their cold, soulless eyes,
    As they sing praises of almighty’s name,
    Or go to place of worship above and beyond,
    Only to show their humble nature—

    A game of deceit they play with him;


    He who knows all about them,
    And what they do when they think they’re not being watched,
    But—

    As soon as the sun sets,
    The real version of them pops out…


    I’d talk to G0d,
    And tell him about his creations,
    But,
    When I look up,
    The sky is empty—


    The sky is all empty, because we buried his concept and anything that relates to him when we first decided to lift our veils…


    Cheers 🥂

  • Real life problems here in India…!?

    Real life problems here in India…!?

    Another day of already answered prompts telling me to go into my partially written saved posts…!

    For those who don’t believe here’s the proof that I can provide you…!

    A screenshot with all the prompts answered…!

    If you stay with me, you will be safe…!

    These are the exact words that left his mouth when I told him that I didn’t want to go with him…!


    Set aback I was, before I could say anything as his words once again filled the room…!


    “There are many who are ill mannered who will tease you, belittle you, call you names, maybe touch you inappropriately and what will you do then…?

    Who will you call out to…?

    Who will you look back to for help…?

    Will you cry out for help…?”


    Don’t you think it will be a terrifying experience…?

    And you won’t be able to move or even make a cry of help when something bad happens…!


    You don’t even call it out when you’re surrounded by people you call your own, because you think they’d think of you in the wrong way…!


    And you think you can go alone safely there without me…?



    His words cut deep,

    But they were true, I should have left early and made all of the necessary arrangements before I planned to travel there, even if it were to travel all alone…!


    I know this seems weird, A lot of dependence on a person, But what if I told you it was the absolute truth for me…?


    Last week another girl just like me was picked up by goons as she was going back home from school and she was assaulted and later left on the side of the road(literally to die);

    Until a passer-by recognized her and shouted to attract more people;


    The already distressed parents ran as they weren’t able to lodge a FIR,

    Denied were their basic rights just because the presiding officer assumed that she must have ran away from home due to some tension or stress from her parents…!

    They also brought them shame by telling them to their face and all those around them that,

    She must have ran away from them with her boyfriend and they must have planned to marry each other…!


    As soon as they reached along with other police officers after an already pre decided sum was received by them in a form of bribe and they were looking to pay a part of it to the family to settle the matter;


    They said girl was still alive and confessed the name of the people that were in that car because they belonged to the same town;

    And they loaded her up in their police van instead of an ambulance and drove off towards the hospital…!

    The parents of the girl stood there and after a while they shook themselves to consciousness and found what had happened…!


    They paddled their way to the hospital but their daughter was declared brought dead;

    The parents also died as soon as they heard the news…!


    As the hospital staff decided to change her to remove all of the blood soaked clothes,

    They began the investigation and found conclusive evidence that it was infact a sexual assault and this would;

    Should be a criminal activity;


    But those so called enforcers of justice came empty handed when she was laden into the police jeep and gave up on the drive towards the hospital,

    Or,

    She was deliberately killed on the way to not get a witness testimony…!


    The words still ringing in my mind,

    If you stay with me, you will be safe..!


    Would I ever be safe, until this mentality stays that I need someone to feel safe

    And when I am alone I will—

    I should feel unsafe…


    Only when there’s someone around me I’ll feel safe…!


    Isn’t this mentality broken enough to push women back into the place they worked so hard to crawl out of…!


    Cheers 🥂

  • Already answered prompts and the Time Quickening…!

    Already answered prompts and the Time Quickening…!

    Another already answered prompt forcing me to pick one of the things from my drafts…!

    Do you feel the time speeding up too…?

    I’d like to call this concept,

    The “Quickening”

    Let me check if this is real word or not;

    (Yes it is a real word, but it just means that the first motion that a foetus in the uterus makes, nothing else than that…)


    Do you feel that the world is moving quicker than it was before?

    Or

    The passage of time has blemished, and in the matter of the few moments maybe hours pass away…

    Maybe when you’re watching reels or doing something that you love; the time feels like it going by real fast…!


    I’ve met people who believe that the year 2020 and 2021 didn’t happen(maybe be of corona virus and it’s spread);

    But, even if we were away from work or detached in the form that doesn’t make any sense…!


    Some believe they are getting older at a pace that they can’t believe is true…!

    One of those is my friend who says nothing seems fun anymore, the lifestyle is the same and things have gotten expensive exponentially and the magic that we had in our childhood is long gone…!


    He told to me something I didn’t recognise until it was too late for me,

    Maybe you didn’t too;

    But the clouds were blue and peaceful,

    And the sunlight was bright and yellow;

    The moon was merciful, and it brought me peace earlier….;

    Now the clouds are grey, the sun is white, and the moon signifies longing more than the eternal peace…!


    He once told me that he’s afraid of dying,

    But death, that’s enticing because it means a sweet release;

    And when I tried to correct him by saying that both of them are same;


    He said that death as an achievement would be a sweet release,

    But the actual process of dying like being dependent on someone to take care of you or fighting an illness until the very end-—

    Where you become miserable and dependent on those who are around you and they too become tired of you after a while…;


    That’s why the process of dying is scary,

    But death seems a sweet embrace…


    And when our conversation came to an end, and I drove back home,

    I realised what he meant by that,

    The instant release from all the mess makes it very appealing,

    But the consequence of not crossing the bridge instantly means that someone becomes your caretaker,

    And when that happens and you see and feel yourself that you have become miserable,

    That feeling can’t be shaken off…!


    A thought called Time Quickening…!


    Cheers 🥂

  • A dream born out of stress and failure…!

    A dream born out of stress and failure…!

    An already answered prompt gave me a choice to choose one of my write ups—

    27 was a dream,

    It was something I thought I couldn’t ever achieve;


    It all began as I reached 25…!


    Everyone I liked,

    Everyone I loved,

    Parted,

    Walked away,

    In their respective fields and in their spaces…!


    Leaving this nobody,

    This no name person all alone;


    All the years spent talking to myself,

    I heard that it was only till age 25 and after that the pain was all over


    It has been two years since that,

    Two years of trying to be a person that I dreamt to be once,

    To be a person who would be loved by someone,

    Who’s life lessons would help someone in some way,

    Just a person and his dream…!


    Until that person’s dreams were cut short,

    A refusal to let them continue their dreams—

    The process of altering themselves to fit into a space followed,

    Which broke them from their very core…!


    Until things could be brought to track,

    The one who denied all the things left for the holy abode,

    Admitting their wrongdoings on their deathbed,

    But what good were those words which broke me from within and all those dream that I had for myself…!


    From that point,

    It is a constant source of stress and pains that stay with me,

    And I couldn’t dream of anything beyond getting home and shutting down my eyes to drift away from the pain…!


    And it was all that from the past two and a half year,

    But not from now onwards—


    I’ve given you the reason I thought my life was meaningless,

    Without a purpose;


    So I made a purpose,

    To bring you a world,

    World beyond your vision…!


    That’s who waakiye is…!


    Thanks for being here and liking the post and commenting,

    Coming back with more power than before…!


    Cheers 🥂

  • Chipped fragments of patriotism…!

    Chipped fragments of patriotism…!

    Are you patriotic? What does being patriotic mean to you?

    Hey…

    I hope all of you are doing well…!

    Another day that I woke up at 2:30 and wrote something in my notes app and fall asleep yet again at 4:45; waking up again with my alarm at 8 am in the morning…!

    I hope to live on this routine…!

    Because the time around 2:30 to 3:30 are becoming the most optimum time for me to write and think because I’m all alone at that point of time and no one distracts my thinking or my thought of process…!

    I’ll add at the end what I wrote this morning…

    Coming back to the prompt

    Patriotism and its meaning to me

    First of all, the patriotism is on an all time low because of the way this country is being handled;

    The way the so called elected officials are weaponising the religious beliefs of a said community to spew even more hatred towards each other, causing conflict within them each and every single day and making it their main goal of their election campaign…

    Do let me know,

    Have you ever heard someone say in India ever before—

    “हमारा धर्म खतरे में है…!”

    (Our religion is at risk…!)

    We’ve never heard that in our lifetime ever before and we won’t hear this ever again once this party loses all of its grip and goes away for good…!

    Well,

    A country where acts of terrorisms happen and the lost lives are used as a weapon of getting votes, the people here are either clueless or don’t care about the direction they’re taken in…!

    The deals accepted by our said prime minister to accept USA and Venezuelan oil at prices higher than their counterparts and then welcoming him like he was involved in negating world war 3 shows the hypocrisy of the whole government and its constituents…!

    And working on a law that any army retired personnel cannot release a biography or a book until 20 years of retirement challenges all of the basic ideas that define the crooked state and the mishandling of our resources…!

    And today’s prompt asks us for patriotism,

    You cannot revive something that is taken away from our eyes and being chipped away each day and only fragments are being seen by us every passing day until there will be none…!

    A vision into patriotism for our country,

    India 🇮🇳

    Cheers 🥂

  • Deteriorating state of our country and waking up at odd hours…

    Deteriorating state of our country and waking up at odd hours…

    Have you ever unintentionally broken the law?

    Hey…

    I hope all of you are doing well…!

    A warmer morning this one is and I woke up at 2 in the morning with cold sweats, and turned on the fan, doom-scrolled for a while, turned on my tab and watched a few episodes of Daria and went back to sleep around 4:30 and woke up yet again as my alarm rang at 8 in the morning,

    And I’ve felt more refreshed than ever;

    Maybe this intermittent sleep schedule is the way to get more of my creativity out,

    Because I remember writing something about close friends who ditch on me at the moment I need them, but I have stood up for them various times even at odd hours…

    Maybe this realisation was very much needed to distance myself from such people in my life and this realisation couldn’t have come at the right time as may a people I considered close missed an important date in my life;

    Instead of two who reached out to me;

    (Khair…)

    Coming back to the prompt

    Unintentionally breaking the law

    What are we talking about here tbh…!

    I’m making this post from Delhi, India where the people don’t see the red lights before crossing—

    The assaults on women are on an all time high-

    There are more than 50 people including men, women and children going missing who can’t be traced even by the police each and every single day—

    Rules are broken left and right and today due to mahashivratri;

    Truck full of people and their dj sets will blare music all throughout the day wherever they go and cause noise pollution throughout the day-

    Can you ever tell such people that the faith exists within their bodies and doing a pomp and show disrupts other communities too,

    But if that is said it would cause more harm than good—

    Each day there are numerous cases registered and some are cleared just through under the table deals or by paying off the victim or their surviving family—

    A lawless state we live in here,

    Let me not tell you about speeding or illegally cutting of the lanes that these blinkit drivers and e rickshaw drivers make 🫩

    And even I’m not someone who is pure amongst the people who are covered in grime-

    I’ve paid my way out of problems too, that were caused by breaking rules like speeding, or other illegal activities(let’s stop it here)

    Because that’s the easiest way to get away from any problem when you can pay someone and they make it disappear…!

    Money works wonders even in overcoming the hurdles in bureaucratic procedures and makes our lives easier instead of letting our files sit and collect dust in government offices…!

    Because this is India…!

    (मेरा देश बदल रहा है…)

    (My country is changing)

    And becoming an even more greedy, selfish and corrupt one just because we have normalised this sort of thinking and they don’t work unless they are fed their rates…!

    A deep dive into our state of operations to the world…

    Cheers 🥂

  • A destiny made through these words…

    A destiny made through these words…

    If there were a biography about you, what would the title be?

    Hey…

    I hope all of you are doing well…!

    I woke up this day with some lightheadedness, and stuffy nose, I knew this was coming because as soon as seasons change, I get sick no matter how much i take care of myself, no matter if i drink cold or hot;

    Just this once when February crosses into march, I will get the same type of sickness every year, it also happens when fall mixes into winter…

    I think I’ll watch another day and if the conditions don’t improve, I’ll pay a visit to the nearby doctor…!

    Coming to the prompt

    Title of my biography

    Well, these words have come into my life as my saviour because they were with me even when I was all alone,

    And

    On finding no one to talk about the waves of emotions that I once found within myself, I took it to pen and paper and the story continues ever since and each day I find something new,

    Maybe a new way to view this world or a new perspective in which I can place myself in someone’s shoes and imagine the world through their eyes…!

    And because these words made me who I am,

    I’d title it—

    A destiny made through these words

    To a new vision that waits for me…

    Cheers 🥂

    Love Waakiye 🤍
