Memories


Rooftops and singing songs with Durva….My childhood memories and lovely her…
Sophia balconies and sessions of crazy laughter …
Mom’s cakes...Her Lap and my naps... Papa’s constant pampering and gifts…Riding on Bhai’s shoulders and later on his Bajaj Scooter… Watching TV amongst family chatter..

Shanti ‘Bai’ and me; ‘her little BabyJi’… Bhai’s friends ; their naughty jokes, and me behaving coy..

Going to ‘Dreamland’ seemed so stylish… Riding pillion on a friend’s bike seemed so stylish…

Wearing Papa’s T Shirts seemed so cool… Riding on Kinetic (Sukriti, Nidhi, Amrit, where are those dumb vehicles?) , we looked like fools !!

Discussing ‘Cosmo..’ was a total Rage… Meenakshi  scolding us for not acting our Age..

Deeksha, Her Zen and Civil Lines… Her moral stories and my scorn on why she acts “divine??”

There was goodness in the smile, there was hope with every mile…
Those colorful days have flown away…. Their memories however, will always stay…
What went on after that is not worth it my friend…. Coz  life dint allow to remain innocent... It grilled us and dried some roots...
Those days saw us chirpy, saw us mad, taught us nothing… just left us glad… Left us craving…

Hurts have made me what I wasn’t


Hurts have made me stronger, only because they’ve made me fearless..
Hurts have made me phlegmatic, because they’ve made me trade off Joy for Normalcy
Hurts have made me closer to my silhouette … Coz’ they’ve taught me that only, and only, a Mother will hold your darkest truths, in a hidden closet… No One Else
Hurts have made me Ignorant… and that maybe is, because they’ve made me tenacious….Indifferent to scorn and sarcasm
Hurts have made me introspective… Only because they’ve made me ‘alone’, leaving ample ‘me-time’..
Dear Hurts… I wonder what was your ulterior plan in playing with my ‘Being’..
But eventually you’ve made me what I wasn’t…. Left me pondering whether I am happy with this or not !!!
