Friendly Addiction: Unlimited Interactions

  In life, we get all kinds of friends, some close, some closer, some strangers, some travelers. In my experience, at one point in my life, I had more than 500 friends, during my school days back in Carmel Convent School, Hamirpur, Rourkela. My parents would constantly see me getting phone calls, and visitors independent of their demographics.      My father would smile and say, "Jenny, are you an IAS officer?, that you get so many calls in a day?" . I used to laugh in response and say, "Paa, they all want me to solve their problems, and I love the attention".     How did this happen?, it didn't happen when I started school, trust me, I was really shy, hardly talking and surprisingly even my teachers in kindergarten had escalated issues, stating that I don't even show classwork to teachers during the class. I was the youngest, in my father's family and I had a total of 6 elder cousins to look upto, including my elder brother. When I started school...

Pretences

I get tired of smiling at times..
Heart raging with anger but struggle to utter a single word of profanity..
Loved someone till death but that someone couldn’t risk his freedom ..
Every moment seems to be an illusion as I want to be me but couldn’t be..nobody wants to see the real me..


With despair I run far away from truth to pursue me harder..
Only to risk my life with loneliness.
Is this what we call life…I live every day as they say ..
Carving thoughts out of clouds , singing in the rain, wiping the window pane,humming with the bird while walking down the meadows..
Chasing the sunset ..splashing water running along the shore..
Lying right next to him talking through the night till the sun lights up his face..
Knowing days will pass by but no wishes to fear.
Look what I become where wants haunt me ..and desire lures me keeping me on my toes never letting me breathe the fresh air..
It’s not who I am..running just makes this worse
