INTJ, storm-borned and windy-kind Welcome to The Literary Bay. You'll find literature, emotion and everything in between.

The softer I get, the messier I become.

"Love this, love that, all you talk about is love."

Yes, I do.

And I will keep on doing it.

Everybody needs to be drunk on something to forget their lives for once.

Why is it wrong for me to be drunk on love?

[theliterarybay]

After all,

We are the graveyard of all our dreams

And the people we could've been.

I heard this somewhere and it sat with me...

If someone mispronounces a word, that means they learned it while reading.

We often tend to judge someone immediately when we hear them mispronouncing a word in a language they are not fluent in or that language is not their native. But if someone does that, it probably means they read it somewhere, which makes their effort bigger than the judgement.

सूरज की रोशनी सा वो

मेरी रूह तक को छू गया,

चमेली की कली सी मैं

उसपर अपनी खुशबू छोड़ गइ।

[theliterarybay]

But, who am I, without my unquenched desire to be free?

[midnightsadboy]

you're scared of losing people but who's scared of losing you?

Now...that....

If it is meant for you, it will cross oceans, distances, and doubts to reach you.

Heartbreak and melancholy are my keys to consistency, as I tend to forget that I'm a writing when I'm in love. What do you call, ironic or tragic?

“I’m always leaving, but I never have anywhere to go.”

— Courtney Summers

[theliterarybay]

I'm always leaving because no one ever held me and asked to stay.

And the tragedy is... Somehow only you can make my sadness go away.

[theliterarybay]

OHHH...

[theliterarybay]

You say I don't miss you.

But darling, I diluted the nights with my tears, yearning for you.

[angeldevil11]

[theliterarybay]

And you think of me everything apart from love.
