"and the earth itself.... its loveliest fragrance is known only when it receives a shower of rain. and the scent of wet earth rises as though it were giving something beautiful back to the clouds." // ruskin bond, rain in the mountains

॥ सिन्दूरारुणविग्रहां त्रिनयनां माणिक्यमौलिस्फुरत्

तारानायकशेखरां स्मितमुखीमापीनवक्षोरुहाम् ।

पाणिभ्यामलिपूर्णरत्नचषकं रक्तोत्पलं विभ्रतीं सौम्यां

रत्नघटस्थरक्तचरणां ध्यायेत्परामम्बिकाम् ॥

//She who is hued in vermillion

Who is three-eyed

Whose crown rubies bejewel

And the crescent moon adorns

She who mesmerizes with a

compassionate smile

She of shapely limbs

Cupping a bejeweled vessel abounding in nectar in one hand

And a crimson lotus in another //

Me, a sith who adores cersei: There is no middle ground, I only deal in absolutes.

There’s two ends of the horror spectrum

Wine, Charity, Revenge?

Witchcraft, Wisdom, Death...

रूह ने छू ली जिस्म कि ख़ुश्बू

तू जो पास आयी

तू जो पास आयी

तू जो पास आयी
