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...

Grief

I stood right there but you were gone.
Tried holding you back but your presence had faded...
My head was still resting on your lap, when you moved away..
hands tightly on my grasp couldn't avoid the emptiness..
Eyes just don't want to believe what they are bound to see..
They hold their breathe while looking everywhere for the face which lit me up..

I stand right across but you chose not to cross..
With the thought of meeting you I doze off ..
Everyday the birds of dawn ask me your arrival..
As the horses run past me at dusk ,you are nowhere close.


The Moments spent were right here haven't even realized they are bygone .
When you heard me while walking along without denying a reply..
Like a cloud in an empty sky puffing me as you sway.
As the night gets darker I see you coming my way..
Holding my hands keeping it close to your heart.


I cannot help my tears ..
My fearless being might get startled from pain.
Hope remains to see you again..
While my mind is aware driving me insane..

As I smile at you when you smile back..
As you hold me never to let me go..
 I run only to find myself trudging through sand as you become impossible to reach .

My waves are ready to hit the shore but the sun has set
And the tide will soon die down...

I don't see this ending..
With your self  gone and my thoughts still pending..
It will perish once it forgets to hurt.
Until then grief might stay making their way out through tears in dismay.
