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...

Promise



I see your eyes
All through the dark nights.
When asleep
Dreams diving deep.
Drowning as I try harder to breathe
There are promises to keep.
Your hands still holding me
Tugging me through the streets
When alone
Endless emotions piercing the bone.
Running towards the crowd as I catch my breath.
There are hopes to meet.
The past cannot protect
No matter how hard it affects.
To my inner voice
I make a choice.
The time needs to take a leap.
Though there are scars to seep.
I promise not to weep.
