there’s a weight on my back
and they called it a mark
of the real me, the real dream
am i dreaming?
while wide awake
a soul and a story
how do we know
about what we know?
where is the hook?
where is the story?
where is the true reality?
hello, hello
can you hear me
through the crowds?
the highest peaks and
the lazy rivers and
the truth that lies above?
but truth is a sin
and sin is a crime
and crime is the only thing
keeping me alive
tonight
you tell me one thing
and do the other
how do i believe, myself?
i don’t know the truth
of you, of me, of myself
all i know, is what i know, is truth

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.
