My collection of original song lyrics I've written over the years. Each song captures a moment in my life like a time capsule; the events that occurred and the emotions I felt are strung through every word. These songs tell true stories of love, friendship, pain, and loss. By recording these heartfelt times of my life, I give immortality to these memories. And as time moves forward and I look back on these lyrics, I can see how much I've grown and remember those turning points that have made me who I am today. "𝕭𝖊𝖆𝖚𝖙𝖞 𝖈𝖔𝖒𝖊𝖘 𝖋𝖗𝖔𝖒 𝖕𝖆𝖎𝖓" *Note: These do not come with music because I did not write music to go with them The images used do not belong to me It would mean a lot if you guys comment on each one to let me know what you think :). Thanks so much for taking the time to read them! *Note: DO NOT COPY or redistribute without permission

Funtube, Grimstagram, Fakebook, Tic Tac-Welcome to the hot and happening, all emcompassing world of Social Media where the Criminal turns to a Sage and the Beggar has million dollars under his kitty, where an Idiot can solve complex Mathematics, where the Caucasians appear tanned and olive while a natural brown or wheatish African/Indian graces the covers of fashion magazines in bleached and unnaturally fair tones. This is a place of both the havs and the have-nots. Anushka Roy is an influencer who basks in the cool vibes of the charm that hides behind the flashy world of Social Media, she loves to live life king size and vlogs her culinary sojourns to her virtual family of millions. But is life the way it is manifested? Does the uber cool and posh way of living mask a tainted and tear-strained vagrant wandering aimlessly for a direction? All that glitters is not always gold, is it? Join Anushka's hands and delve deep into her struggles, her trepidations, her indecisiveness that lead her to the path of ultimate realisation. Start date: 13/10/2021 Completion date: 25/10/2021 Cover by the very wonderful @sarcastic-mess aka Sasha Cahil

"Forever, I had stayed silent, closed off, cut by the doldrums of family politics and societal pressures. Buried under biased judgements, I dwarfed to insignificant heights. But, inside the blaze fought to seize power-an inferno. Raging flames fuelled to perfection-burning hot with wrath, scorched by hindered expectations and smothered under unrealized dreams. Beauty and the beast reside together, working in unison. When one sleeps another awakes. Every beauty has a beast, brought alive by a trigger. I was a beauty, but then shit happened. Still, I smile. I laugh. I cook. I sew. I make love. I'm a good girl. But, good girls aren't necessarily good, it's just that they aren't bad in the traditional way. ---------------------------------------------------------- "You will get used to it...just a matter of time", her mother stated. "Every girl goes through this phase." It's easier said than done. For Sreya, the statement failed to shed a warm light, never had. And growing up in Swarupnagar, a suburb in one of the most dead corners of Kolkata didn't contribute much to the situation either. Dreams aren't bound, neither by words nor by limitations. Sreya dreamt for just one thing-get out of the system and create a life of her own. But, not every dream can be fulfilled; even worse, what if they come at a cost? What happens when your past that you skilfully camouflage haunts as your worst nightmare and the institution of marriage that people hold as sacred is rigged at the very core! Set against a backdrop of Metropolitan Kolkata, this tale of lust, ambition, addiction and revenge creates a wild concoction that is sure to leave readers' minds content, fulfilled and craving for more. ---------------------------------------------------------- Disclaimer: MATURE CONTENT Start date: 13/08/2021 End date: 30/9/2021
