Unspoken Tears | Humane

 

⚠️ Trigger Warning ⚠️

Blood be upon your accursed competition! Blood be upon brilliant career! Blood be upon you all! To over-ambitious humans.



A vampire? Bloodthirsty thing?

You are sad, you are in pain, and you cry.
You are blessed. 
Because your tears don't bear any stigma.
They make you human, if only a trifle weak.

What if each and everybody directs at you
For your tears?
What if your own pearl-drops tarnish you? 

What if your inner You too surrenders
To accept them as your own fault? 
What if a helpless You make them pity
Only to mock you from behind later?

This is when blood replaces tears.
More colorful, the ruby-lumps are
Much stronger a liquor. 
And you can still smile, if only a facade. 

They appreciate the appearance of happy and strong You. 
They badge you a warrior, beneath that, a loser.
You yourself have accepted that. 

Yes. I am a vampire, and I am proud to be. 
Because no human is left without a speck of hope.

Like an animal. I'm trapped. Without any hope of escape. 
You all are free, because you all are humans. 

Who but a human has a right to live? 

Please, no mocking pity or sympathy anymore. 
Only the honor of human which I had not while alive.

Black Pit of Darkness | The Dark Truth

Everyone today thinks of it as a dream place. A place almost everybody knows as a place where all wishes come true. Still, I can't help but smile at them, smile at their blessed ignorance. Because I know the hellish truth about it. I know what a terrible, dangerous, dark place it is. And I again feel what a mercy it is not to know about some things— because not everything on this Earth is for everyone, and it is better to stay ignorant of some things. When I first completed the necessary processes, I couldn't help feeling something on my back, because I couldn't forget the vile things people spoke about the place. Still, suppressed excitement won over that natural alarm, and I felt too confident to keep myself safe from bad things.  The first few days went well. I used to go and spend quite some time there. I met several new people, who were all nice and friendly. I always tried to prove myself and quite succeeded in that— in no time at all I got a bunch of good friends who...

HELLO! WELCOME

Hello! Welcome to my website. Here you'll find all about me, my interests, works and achievements. Feel free to contact me. Thanks again for visiting my site! First, let me introduce myself. I'm Bidisha, a 18- year old girl from the leafy suburbs of Tamluk, West Bengal, India. I completed my 10th and 12th boards from Rajkumari Santanamoyee Girls' High School. Currently I'm pursuing B.Sc honours in physics from Midnapore College (Autonomous). I'm a passionate writer and enthusiastic about climate and sustainability. I've worked in an international youth- led environmentalist organisation named ClimateScience; and have written in Climate Spectrum, journal of another youth-led organisation named Clim-Sci. Diagnosed with severe depression, bipolar disorder and psychosis at 14, I spent a lot of my life suffering from mental health issues. Now I've left the darkest time behind, and write to raise awareness about mental health.  Nice to meet you! Explore more in my...

Stylus of the Green | A Message From June, 1989

Third place winner in ClimateScience Global Community Story Contest, September 2022 Waking up in my grass bed, I winced in pain. I looked at my body. I barely had any golden colour left on my skin. I know, I don’t have much time. Perhaps this very day I’ll drift to peace. So I’m relating the story of my life. Long ago, it wasn’t like this. We lived happily here, hopped around to catch insects, and danced in the rain. The mountain was a paradise for us then. But everything began to change. The weather began to get drier and drier. There was hardly any rain; if any, it brought only more heat. In that foul weather, a deadly fungus began to grow quickly, spreading an epidemic in our population. My parents, siblings, friends all perished to that fungal disease. But I’m not heartbroken. Because I know, I’ll be reunited with them very soon. Everybody in our colony is gone. Perhaps I’m the last survivor of the golden toad species. But I know what has brought this disaster. My best friend told ...
