Persephone

 

By : W. R. G. Menike




Why not write
Pouring your heart
A love letter to a burning star?
When he says
"I hate seeing you hurt
But I just can't stop loving your scars."

What is love
but following through
Knowing so well how everything ends
"We'll be waiting
on the dark side of the moon
till you come around" said my imaginary friends.

Where mirrors talk
And shadows bleed
And my steps are lost on shattered shards.
Here’s to all the
nights and days
I wonder, why I fell for your half-metallic heart?

Top 10 things to NEVER do on a first date

Image
By: Sahan De Fonseka        There are few guarantees in life, but one thing is certain: the sun will rise in the east, death will strike us all, and you will, at some point, find yourself in the middle of a raging argument with your date without even realizing it. We've all been in that situation. Everything is under control while you're on a date. Then you say or do something – an action or a passing remark, something seemingly innocuous, or so you believe – and it irritates her. The air changes the moment it leaves your lips, and there is no going back. Here are a few fundamental guidelines to follow to stay out of trouble. 1.

Just as we’d ordered a couple of milkshakes, I got a call from my friend saying he’s left his USB drive in the car, and he needs it as soon as possible. And although I promised her I’d be back soon, when I got back, I’d realized she’d gone, and there lay a single text on...

In a world of diverse and unique human beings, the human mind is not an organ but is based on the activity of the human brain. A person's mind develops from birth.

Insecurities are fuel

Image
By: Christina Thanarajasinghe Coping up with an inferiority complex is a significant problem for the younger generation these days and I also have been struggling since my childhood. The pressure which is created by this society pushes me down all the time and makes me think that I’m not worthy. I was tired of the opinions of people. I have spent many nights crying alone and worrying about my insecurities. Media and the society around us always wanted to show up a mirage in which we can easily get trapped. Wherever you go, you see many things to compare with yourself. It seems like a person who is more attractive in terms of physical appearance can be successful. In your life too sometimes, you have met friends who developed friendships with a person just because he or she is attractive.
