Breathed too much (a)

Lived too little (b)


That's why I, (c)


Grieve in such (a)

heart so brittle. (b)

Note: Wrote the poem on a whim. When i was scanning "SHALL I COMPARE THEE TO A SUMMERS DAY?".

 If your are in a hurry then scan the Artworks and songs. 

Here are a few artwork complement the themes and emotions conveyed in the poem:



1. "The Scream" by Edvard Munch: This iconic painting depicts a figure in distress, capturing a sense of existential anguish and inner turmoil. The expression of grief and vulnerability in the poem could resonate with the emotional intensity portrayed in "The Scream."



2. "The Persistence of Memory" by Salvador Dalí: This surrealist artwork features melting clocks in a dreamlike landscape, conveying a sense of the passage of time and the ephemeral nature of existence. The theme of regret and the perception of time's fleeting nature in the poem could find resonance with the surreal and thought-provoking imagery of this painting.



3. "Ophelia" by John Everett Millais: Inspired by Shakespeare's character from "Hamlet," this painting depicts Ophelia floating in a river surrounded by flowers. The portrayal of Ophelia's vulnerability and emotional turmoil could resonate with the themes of grief and fragility in the poem.



4. "The Sower" by Vincent van Gogh: This painting portrays a figure sowing seeds in a field, symbolizing the act of investing in life and the potential for growth and renewal. The reflection on a life lived and the regret expressed in the poem could find visual resonance with the depiction of the sower and the contemplation of one's actions.


Here a some classic scores and songs that could complement the themes and emotions conveyed in the provided poem:


1. "Adagio for Strings" by Samuel Barber: This powerful orchestral piece is renowned for its emotional depth and solemnity. Its evocative and melancholic nature could resonate with the grief and introspection expressed in the poem.


2. "Moonlight Sonata" by Ludwig van Beethoven: The delicate and introspective nature of this piano composition could complement the introspection and vulnerability conveyed in the poem. Its emotive qualities and contemplative melody make it a fitting choice.


3. "Requiem" by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart: The haunting and mournful melodies of Mozart's Requiem Mass in D minor capture a sense of profound grief and reflection. This classical composition explores themes of mortality and the transient nature of life, which align with the sentiments expressed in the poem.


4. "Hallelujah" by Leonard Cohen: This iconic song, with its poetic lyrics and emotional resonance, could complement the themes of introspection, vulnerability, and the weight of regret found in the poem. It captures a sense of longing and offers a contemplative

It is just another mundane monday at the University.  I am inside room no. 206. Sitting on the benche beside Sharif. Leaning my head on the table. Half asleep and half awake.

With furtive eyes, I looked at Her. The almost mythical, almost goddess, Her.  She was also not focusing on sir's l...

I will come and meet you. Not with a flower, Not with a fruit. Its not your heart, That I am trying to loot. I will come and meet you, Not to talk,   Or to gawk. Just to look, And stay mute. It is all I can do, to just meet. Take silent pleasure, In your silent greet.
