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...

Long After

Long after I am gone ..
Remember I was the one..
That waited for you long enough.
Compared to the shadows..
That fled scared of shun.
Long after I am gone..
Remember I was the one..
That spoke about you among the few.
Compared to the ones that..
Stuck with you just for a drink or two.
Long after I am gone..
Remember I was the one..
Who picked up dark over the spark..
Of a cozy comfort virtue..
Compared to the ones who fled ..
From your side as soon as they got any clue.
Long after I am gone..
Don’t forget me as a residue..
But remember me as the one..
Who followed you after all that I knew..
When everyone else drew..
A change across what they found new.
