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...

Gone

What Happened?
I fell down and hurt my knee.
Are you okay?
I think there’s a wound but no one can see.
What are you thinking?
Well you are the one talking.
Why do you say that?
Cause you are on my mind but why can’t I find.
Just let me go..
Not yet, though now is the time you may know.
There’s nothing you can change..
No one’s life undergoes an interchange.
This is you..
And this is you too.
There can be no better clue.
Someone will be gone too soon.
While someone will still be covering for you.
Are you getting quieter?
Why can’t I hear you any longer?
What happened?
Nothing that will cease..
Nothing that will pretend to please..
Nothing yet an honest appease.
While you keep walking down the same road..
Figuring out what the trees told..
Were slightly different than the last time.
