kalopsia (n.) - the delusion of things being more beautiful than they really are
I catch a glimpse of our history in your smile
I remember how the two of us against the world rang against my ears,
coating my mouth in shades of summers past
and my heart in honeyed delusionsSeries

Summary
we were two suns
leaving traces of light on the sky like liquid legends
shining brighter bathed in each other's rays
and when they puts us a universe apart,
I burnt so much that the whole galaxy went dark- a poem about how sometimes life gives you your soulmate without allowing you to be together

Summary
“Why don’t you have friends?” Devi asks, unable to stop herself. Her amma says that her inability to keep her thoughts to herself is going to get her into trouble someday, but she knows how to throw a punch. She is not really that worried.
But then, Ben makes a face just short of heartbroken, and she thinks that maybe her big mouth has gotten her into trouble after all.
“I don’t know,” he says, and shrugs. “Maybe I’m just not the kind of person who has friends. I’ve read about them…like, in newspapers and stuff.”
Devi blows a raspberry, awkward. “I mean, I’ll be your friend, but then you’d be losing out on your branding as the guy without friends,” she teases. The tips of her fingers shake, giving away her nerves. “Really, it’s up to you.”
He smiles, his whole face lifting with it, a glow like the sun. “Yeah, I want you to be my friend—or, I want to be your friend, I-I want us to be friends.” The words come out in an awkward stammer, and he gestures wildly, hands fluttering.
--
OR; Ben and Devi are best friends, and they give each other a lot of gifts

Summary
Part of him wants to fight for her. To go to her and talk to her like they should have a long time ago. To tell her how he feels, to see if she still feels the same. Because he swore—swore she felt it too, not long ago, when he looked in her eyes. They could figure it out. They could finally be together. It doesn’t have to be too late.
But then he looks at her. Her slight smile, eyes gleaming as she looks up at Paxton. And he knows—knows that he’s only kidding himself. Because even if she did want to choose Ben first, she’s with Paxton now.
And she looks so happy.
Suddenly that’s the only thing that matters. All he wants is for her to be happy.

Summary
“Dances are just institutions created by schools to make teenagers feel ugly and awkward,” she tells him darkly, working hard to push the image of Paxton in his suit at last year’s Prom from her mind. He’d picked her up at home with a corsage and a bunch of flowers for her mom and told her she was beautiful all night.
Ben snorts. “Methinks she doth protest too much.”
Devi rolls her eyes, correcting him: “It’s ‘the lady doth protest too much, methinks’, genius – and I meant what I said.”
He sounds amused when he says, “Sure.”
She scoffs, “I didn’t realize I was talking to a lobbyist for high school dances.”
“Shut up and answer the question.”
“What was the question?” she asks, feigning ignorance, “I never really listen when you talk.”
