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.

Prophecy

Maybe I am not a good person..
Maybe I am a trickster.
Maybe I am a soul monster.
Maybe I am an imposter.

But whoever I am..
I tried for real.
To be happy with the meal.
To be happy with the smile.
To be happy with the thought..
Even with an empty pot.


An empty self.
A lonely realm.
Of honesty and shame.
No one but me to blame.
As everyone ran for fame.
Or a false proclaim.
Faith is an ignorant tame.
As your innocence can never be the same.
