New Found Love
Raveena Warkad
You came and  left, Many times. And came again, But I refused. To look at you, That beauty, that charm. I never realised. Until I stood in the same place as you. Until our stories resonated at the same frequency. Until I saw, my reflection in you, And found... read more...

Echoes Of Violence
Raveena Warkad

Raveena Warkad
