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...

Why Don't You ?

Why don’t you look ?
I don’t want to..
But why ?
Cause it’s a shadow..
Then why don’t you follow.
Why should I ?
Then do deny..
It’s better to just lie.
Why don’t you see ?
I can’t..
But why?
Cause there’s a dark tree..
Are you scared?
Or have you decided to flee?
It doesn’t matter..
As whatever visible is colossal scatter.
Why don’t you come ?
I won’t.
Cause the bridge is broken..
And the shallow drift has spoken.
As empty noises awoken..
Leaving an unfinished token.
But don’t ask me why..
As you said I shouldn’t choose to lie.
And even though it gives you sore..
I keep my promise ..
To stay no more.
