Broken hearts, tethered souls

Broken hearts, tethered souls
Never undone, never old
Fighting the tears back
I need you here
Going around in circles
Faltering evermore
I had a dream of never falling apart
Of ever loving you, forever, so far
Of beating around the bush, for that yes
But soon found out, you were just like the rest
The rest in my life
Who left me high and dry
I thought you might be it
But now I think, was it even worth a try
You have someone with you now
Someone who got to you first
Before I came around
It’s obvious I think that he is the lucky one
He has the heart I needed
He has the soul I like the most
He has the one I will remember
For which I have strived the most
Losing my sleep, in those dreams
I want to die a handsome rose
With no one around to love me like that
It’s a wasted life to live, I suppose?

Interested by its plot, I decided to start watching this seemingly somber film. Well, I wasn’t disappointed, but neither was I amazed. I got what I expected. Before we get to that, I think I should dive a little deeper into the plot. Seven strangers, waiting in a blood test center’s waiting room for their HIV test results, decide to bribe the counter lady so that they can get to know their results as soon as possible. The counter lady finds out only half the information—one of the seven people is HIV-positive. Rather than relieving their stress, it increases the protagonists’ necessity to know the results. This is the basic plot, literally the one displayed on Netflix.  This 2018 movie has the coveted Prakash Raj and Nasser. Prakash Raj, as usual, gives a stellar performance, whereas Nasser is present on screen for barely fiv...

To My Ex (or A Letter from My Past!)

Found a letter in my drawer A slight recall to my past The regretful relationship The hurtful remarks Booming with condescension Filled with careless words Stuffed with egoistic junk Words, more words, and worse Quite funny, it was Actually a love letter of sorts One sent in the peak of "our" time I'm so glad it was lost!
