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...

Selfish


Our eyes met
As they were meant.
Bowing down relentlessly
To the priceless gesture.
Hands were held
As our hearts felt.
Serving bravely
To the sacred venture.
Selfish as we all are
Painless to the terrible scar.
The forbidden door left ajar.
While minds were at war.
Loving yourself instead
Scared to take the step ahead.
Paths don’t cross
And no one measures the loss.
The faith is endless
But what happens next is clueless.
For you life is
As for life you are.
The stone takes the leap
While the flow changes its course.
Looking at yourself you weep
Not long as Pain eases the source.
