Did You Ever Love Me? Book Review: Can Rithvik singh turn heartbreak into a homecoming?

Did You Ever Love Me? by Rithvik Singh is a tender contemporary poetry collection about love, heartbreak, longing, self worth and learning to let go. Its greatest strength is emotional accessibility: Singh writes directly to readers who feel intensely and care deeply. The collection offers comfort without pretending heartbreak is simple, though its simplicity may occasionally feel familiar to seasoned poetry readers. Did you Ever Love Me? Have you ever loved someone so completely that, after they left, you were left wondering whether they had ever understood what they had been given? Not merely whether they loved you, but whether they ever noticed how much you loved them, how much patience you offered, how many small things you remembered, or how often you chose to stay when leaving might have been easier.

Romance and Cellphones

Gravitation cannot be held responsible for people falling in love.-- Albert Einstein
These days the romance is dependent upon cellphones. Notes of love are exchanged through text messaging,love starts and ends via cellphones. For instance a guy proposes a girl calling up..the affair blooms,the couple reaches the pinnacle but the flowers of love are dried up and the fragrance of love cannot be smelt after sometime because the couple has now had a break up..interestingly via cellphones..so the cellphones have become boon for some- who are continuing in their affair..bane for same - who had a breakup..SO AS IT IS SAID-- AN IDEA CAN CHANGE YOUR LIFE!!! for ur good or worse..on top of that the cellphone companies provide packages of free calling and free messaging..so that you are connected!! LOVE CONNECTS..but here via cellphones!!interesting concept huh?saves your time and money..as people dedicate love cards, romantic songs all through cellphones.im not saying that cellphones should be banned..just saying ..discretion is necessary..n when we talk about TRUE LOVE ..it doesn't need cellphones or internet!one glance of a person may remain with you forever and that is true love..True love doesn't mean union of two people..it means u give your heart without asking for the other person's love.

Debate : Do the ends justify the means...

Note : Give it all a fair thought before you jot down... Flaming and religion-bashing will not be tolerated. Your participation is gladly appreciated. I dunno if you folks remember this incident; a couple of yrs back, the UPSC exam had a question where the emainee had to assert his views on *revolutionary terrorism* initiated by Bhagat Singh. As is typical of the government, hue and cry was not far behind... Anyway, let us look at some facts -   Bhagat Singh was an atheist, considered to be one of the earliest Marxist in India and in line with hi thinking, he renamed the Hindustan Republican Party and called it the Hindustan Socialist Revolutionary Party. Bhagat Finally, awaiting his own execution for the murder of Saunders, Bhagat Singh at the young age of 24 studied Marxism thoroughly and wrote a profound pamphlet “Why I am an Atheist.” which is an ideological statement in itself. The circumstances of his death and execution are worth recounting. Although, Bhagat Singh had a...

But what I felt wasn't true and I'd never known that trait of hers which never matched mine had such a reason behind it. She never liked to talk or be familiar to the opposite sex.

Then one day as we were alone in my room I asked her why she was so unfamiliar and irritat...
