Who Would've Thought?

Who would've thought
We'd see this day?
Anime, poems, movies, all turned to dust now
My body is numb,
But I think it hurts somewhere.
Who would've thought
It was all a play?
Pretty face, pretty voice, maybe pretty lies
The actor was good
But I think the violence won't let it air
Who would've thought
It was always one way?
Waited for him to cross the road
My hand out,
But I believe the speedy cars didn't let him dare
Who would've thought
All the sweet talks would start with a heyy?
Said he didn't want to hurt me so didn't bother to explain
The orator was good
But the speech made it hard to hear
Who would've thought
My favorite month would no longer be may?
Never missed the chance to look for him despite my aching eyes
The sun was cruel
But at least the winter is near
Who would've thought
Black would be my new gray?
Astronaut, moon, piano, everything so surreal
The artist was good,
But his art was all a snare
Who would've thought
I'd believe everything he'd say?
Would've preferred hurt over silence any time
My grip is tight,
But to leave me hanging, that is so unfair
Who would've thought
I wouldn't want to stay?
Told me to trust no one, nor to expect
I may be strong
But there's only so much a human can bear
Who would've thought
I would no longer need the chord to my bed?
Talked till 3 in the morning, said I'm a good listener
I think he fell asleep
But there's so much more I wanted to share
Who would've thought
I'd no longer need to check my phone every two minutes?
Constant cycle of work, gym, games and habits that I'd never know
I forgot the dream
But I think he said he liked my hair
Who would've thought
I'd have to pay?
Always put his feelings first, not a care of my own heart
I may be rich
But I forgot I'm not a millionaire 
Who would've thought
It'd be over before it even starts?
Moments lingered, but memories now seem like an illusion
Ten for me, five for us
Why take it this far when you didn't even care?

The Absurdity of Existence: A Review of Franz Kafka's 'Metamorphosis'

Hey everyone! I hope you're having a great day (or night) so far. Before you get too deep into your daily routine, I have a question for you: Can you imagine waking up one day to find that you've been transformed into an insect? How do you think you would react? If the thought of it alone makes you uncomfortable, don't worry - you're not alone. But for the protagonist of Franz Kafka's classic novel The Metamorphosis , this nightmare becomes a reality. In today's post, we'll be exploring the themes and symbolism of Kafka's transformative tale. Synopsis: The Metamorphosis is a novella written by Franz Kafka and published in 1915. It tells the story of a young man named Gregor Samsa who wakes up one morning to find that he has been transformed into a large, monstrous insect. At the beginning of the story, Gregor is a traveling salesman who works long hours to provide for his family. He is not particularly happy with his job or his life, but he ...

Why Pride and Prejudice Endures: A Look at the Timeless Appeal of a Classic Novel

Hey everyone! I'm back with another post and today I'm going to talk about one of my most favorite novels ever. Pride and Prejudice by the legend herself, Miss Jane Austen. Pride and Prejudice is a classic novel that has captured the hearts of readers for centuries. The story follows the lives of the Bennett family, particularly the daughters, as they navigate the societal expectations and pressures of the early 19th century. While the novel is often seen as a romance, it is also a commentary on the societal norms and values of the time.  One of the main themes of Pride and Prejudice is the idea of pride and prejudice or the pride that individuals take in their social status and the prejudices that they hold about others based on their status. The character of Mr. Darcy is a prime example of this, as he initially looks down on those who are not of his social class, including the Bennett family. However, as the story progresses, Darcy begins to see the error of his ways and ...

Dark Academia and My Passion for the Written Word

Hey everyone! I'm Taskeen and as a lover of literature, books, reading, writing, and whatnot, I have always been drawn to the melancholic and nostalgically intellectual themes of the dark academia aesthetic. There is something about this aesthetic that speaks to me on a deep level, and that has always resonated with my own interests and passions. At its core, dark academia is an aesthetic that celebrates the beauty and power of the human intellect and is characterized by a love of literature, art, and music, as well as a fascination with the mysteries of the past. For me, this aesthetic represents a way of life that is deeply appealing, and one that I have always felt a strong connection to.  I have always had a love of reading, and the aesthetic perfectly captures this love. It is an aesthetic that values the knowledge and wisdom found within the pages of classic literature and encourages a love of learning and intellectual pursuits. But it's not just about readin...
