Scribbled Thoughts


SCRIBBLED THOUGHTS: Sharad Raj C
Scribbled thoughts is a collection of poems penned by Sharad Raj C. this book vividly covers all the moods and phases of relationship beautifully with each poem. The language of the book is simple yet its content is deep rooted and each and every poem is profoundly moving. The cover of the book totally justifies the content of the book, if you look closely one can see shadowed words and these words individually are zest of one poem or another. Sharad’s expression of love is simple and realistic and reflects true nature of an individual. I have connected with a few of his poems as if they were narrating my own tale such as “I will love you until there is love left in me”.
He has divided his book in three section i.e. the phase of love.
1.       Loving: this section contains different aspects of one’s life when in love some beautiful poems gently describes love from different perspective. My favorite being “from a girl to her boyfriend”.
2.       Breaking: the second part of cycle of love where Sharad takes us on journey beyond love to all the miseries pain and anguish.  “every time I thought you left, you came back. Every time I thought you will stay you left.” and “ we go behind people who don’t want us and they go behind people who will leave them soon.” Sharad reminds us the repercussion of love with his poems.
3.       Healing: post love and breaking we definitely need some repair and writer does his job perfectly. I particularly liked this section as it was full of positivity and regaining self-importance and we go past venerability.
  “After days and days of breaking
    She finally found love
    She finally found the whole goddamn universe
    In no one but herself.”
Sharad Raj C’s book is likable and leaves a soothing effect
