Queen Of Nowhere

Queen of Nowhere

Presenting – the first in Reputation – Queen of Nowhere

“The universe played a cosmic joke on me – and I won’t ever be the same,
I was just a useful tool, just a pawn in your chess game,

I’m not buying what you’re selling,
Not interested in that stuff you’re fencing,

You’re painting a picture, but running out of paint,
Never said I was perfect, Never said I was a saint,

And I was a good girl – kept all my money in the people’s bank,
But the bank robbed the people, so the people robbed the bank,

I know what’s what now, it’s all holed up in a big Swiss vault,
But you don’t know what you lost, I was faithful to a fault,

More than a tool in your negotiation, I was worth so much more,
You shouldn’t have made me leave when I was standing at your door,

Now I’m the Queen of Nowhere; Yes, I’m royalty,
Don’t need the false promises now, of you and I, you and me,

Maybe in another life time, I could’ve forgiven you,
But life’s too short now to think of what ifs too,

Now I’m sitting on my throne, in my palace of broken hearts,
Thanks, but we’re really so much better apart,

Yes, I’m the Queen of Nowhere, Smoke and Mirrors,
Finally alone, seeing myself all that much clearer,

At the ends of the Earth, running for all of time,
Because everything I once knew, is finally mine.”
ANVI TUTEJA

-with you till the end of the line, pal-

As an Avid Blogger, I, Anvi Tuteja, am elated to present my blogsite – Anvi’s Thoughts Caught – as an amalgamation of my literary enterprise, poetic endeavours, day-to-day blogs, and other creative interests. Here is a bit about me: https://anvituteja.com/about-me/ Anvi Tuteja is a master mischief maker, secretly plotting world domination from her imaginary window seat in Gurgaon, India. She’s an aspirant philosopher, first-time author and a die-hard Potter Head. She sidelines as an Oracle of Prophesies, blogger at WordPress and her family’s self-appointed movie buff. Anvi has been reading and writing since she was three years old. For her, poetry is a coping mechanism, and in her words – one that doesn’t judge, doesn’t lie and doesn’t make you feel like you’re wrong for simply being the way you are. Anvi Tuteja is a bundle of contradictions – she reads, but binge-watches anything Marvel; she doesn’t have a social media presence, but she writes a secret diary; and she is a walking Shakespeare encyclopedia, but also a constant music streamer. In all her work, from her regular posts at her blogsite – http://www.anvituteja.com to her TEDx talk about New Emerging Technologies – Anvi Tuteja does it all with heart, impatience and love.
