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.

Buttons & Thread

It's a world of pants and shirts
It's a world where whatever you say doesn't matter..
It's a world where you can try to change but why do so?
It's a world where whatever you say gets interrupted by no you can't do...
It's a world where you can choose not to say but people will say you practice voodoo..

It's a world of skirts and dresses
It's a world where you go around in circles and might as well fall..
It's a world where your scars can be seen but no one asks how have you been..
It's a world where a piece of fabric is torn, as someone unintentionally ripped you open..
It's a world where you can choose to live alone but people will say you are broken..

It's a world of buttons and thread after all
What you want isn't what you found wide spread ..
When you want to leave, nobody wants you to..
But when you don't, people just skin you thin..
Like the pin that pierces the button..
While the button gets strapped even though it's 
Trapped with a different thread inside..
