The script promised that if you followed the rules, you would be happy. Zoe walked away from the script, but found that the alternative was just as hollow. At twenty-four, trapped in the grueling commute of London's corporate grind and betrayed by the very people she thought she could trust, Zoe realizes that running away isn't enough. Not from the performative exhaustion of society, and not from the chaotic, ego-driven fire of modern rebellion. Metanoia: Beyond the Wall (Maturity) is the continuation of a journey through the Dark Night of the Soul. It is a story for anyone who has watched their illusions burn to ash and wondered what comes next. It is not a map to overnight success or a manifesto for burning the system down. It is the profound, quiet realization that true maturity begins when the screaming stops, and the real, unglamorous work of building a life begins from the inside out.

Some unedited, raw poems. Mostly just about exploring feelings such as love, hate, societal frustrations...

Not everyone is blessed with everything in life. Nothing is perfect in this universe; everyone has their own issues and problems, but it depends on the person as to how they are portraying their life in front of others. It also depends on the eye of the beholder as to how they perceive it. Meet Khushi Gupta, daughter of Shashi and Garima Gupta; also the CEO of Gupta Designs. For media and the rest of the society, she was always the main attraction as she was the CEO of Gupta Designs. At such a young age, she gained a lot of fame as she made their company reach newer heights in 2 years only. Many were jealous of her as they thought she was born with a silver spoon in her mouth since everything was laid out for her from the very beginning. From afar it seemed like she had it all together in her life. A luxurious life, loving parents, supportive siblings and a ready-made company worth million dollars. Picture perfect life, right? Wrong! Khushi had everything except for one thing. If it was possible for her would have given up all the materialistic luxuries of her life for it. Khushi Gupta, could never be a mother. Although we are living in the 21st century our society still doesn't accept someone like Khushi, as if it was her fault. Indirect taunts, unnecessary questions, bad behavior and the constant reminder of being barren are just a few atrocities one has to go through. Will Khushi be able to find her lost happiness or will she be stuck in this saga of sadness due to society's backdated mind set? ----------------------- Special thanks to @Yagyaseni for suggesting me this idea. https://www.wattpad.com/user/Yagyaseni
