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...

If I Ever

If I ever forget you..
Remind me of the smile I used to stare.
For long hours..
While the short lived encounters seemed unfair.
If I ever forget you..
Remind me of the nights.
You held me staying quiet..
Until I cuddled and slept …
Till the first day light.
If I ever forget you..
Remind me of the nightmare..
I kept narrating ..
While you were all ears..
Even though your days weren’t all icing to untouched cake layers.
If I ever forget you..
Remind me of the insanely rain..
Where you drove through the rampage.
To self control the damage.
Gobbling up your inner rage.
If I ever forget you..
Remind me why you had to go.
While I was still looking out for you..
Everyday since you left.
Because the repulsive me..
Just doesn’t resent..
Whatever you meant..
As it refuses to forget..
Like a blatant regret.
