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...

Smile

You look great..
Be atrocious..
You are fate.
Your kindness..
Is outrageous.
Your fear..
Is courageous.
Smile..
For you soaked stains.
Be spacious..
For you absorb emptiness.
Be ridiculous..
When it comes to love.
Be gracious..
When it comes to loose.
Be harmful..
To unknown malice.
Be plentiful..
For the need of little to suffice.
Smile..
For you took frown away.
Be numb..
For being stupid is all you have.
Be ardent..
To a stranger’s grasp..
Be addictive.
To a friendly wasp.
Play your role..
Capture drama through grieve in control.
Travel places..
With a staunchy soul.
Things that scare..
Can dig out the flair.
Do look back..
But don’t wait in queue.
End the chase ..
If there’s nothing new.
Smile..
For you can..
Always get started.
But get retracted..
Like fresh drops of dew.
As you hold the wet sand making it fly..
Between your fingers..
As they try..
Embracing the breeze..
Water squishing your toe..
While waves resonate appease.
Echoing your friends than foe.
For you were still there..
As they preferred to go.
And that’s what counts.
Over poignant sigh..
That goes mounting high..
Smile.
As your spirit..
Defeats every lie.
Constantly hiding that you cry..
Failing to comply abruptly.
But always got up to defy.
Starting all over..

As those eyes glare at me bravely.
