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...

Different

Normal.., you are right..
You win every fight.
You smirk at other people’s plight.
You talk smart..
Making convoluted gestures.
You paint colors..
Disregarding the theme.
Mark faces on the basis of skin..
Snob around the crowd going thin.
Look up to people who peep through windows..
Childishly defering sorrows.
Acting like the shot dart..
Making the center but torn apart.
Faking heart ache for spectacular’s sake.
You mock wierd..
Laugh smeared.
Your reflection coincide..
With no kingdom pride.
But Normal gets forgotten the moment you leave the stage..
Unheard as soon as you try to leave the cage.
Days are the same..
But your words echo lame.
Promises being bundled into empty carts..
Perhaps the way you end even before it starts.
While Different..
Figures out.
Though mostly in doubt.
Loud noises seems muse..
Doesn’t demand or accuse.
Tried at the least..
So what if loose.
Choose the wrong..
Start again strong.
They snooze..
Doze off.
Stand still..
Wait up.
For almost all the reasons..
Cause being different..
Is you learning..
To canvas out every gradient.
Without giving up silently.
