Mannnnnn it feels great to be back! The first prompt of the grand NaPoWriMo ‘24 really forced me to push myself into a nostalgia I wasn’t aware I was capable of revisiting. I read and forgot Norwegian Wood a while ago so writing this was interesting. Like everything else, I made this about myself too! To everyone reading, welcome back, I am happy and honoured to have you once again!
This nostalgia reminded me of this lonely street somewhere in the middle of Vile Parle. In hindsight, it seems to be a perfect fit for the poem.
the honey line..... came from the napowrimo site and im so glad they sent me here!!! this book has been added to the tbr bc of this amazing poem, thank u for sharing <3
“I believed loneliness to be long-form yearning.” This resonates. Great piece!
