What you Forget

You forget. You forget why you loved music and all those romantic songs. You forget what it feels like to sleep at night with the surety that the next day will go just fine.You forget to check your phone, the first thing in the morning. You forget how awesome it is to wake up and know that you are no doubt, happy.  You forget how great it feels to look into the mirror and notice the glow.  You forget you can live without those "mood swings" and be always at peace. You forget how is it possible to think about someone 24*7. You forget how complete it feels to think about them, knowing that they think about you too. You forget that its okay to have the flaws which everyone else points out. You forget how awesome it is to be alone but still know that there is someone out there for you even if not in front of these eyes. You forget why your friend acts so weird, silly and according to you a "cheap-romantic" around someone they claim to be in love with. You do not remember how these couples even after so many fights, manage to live by each other's side. You forget that love is indeed blind. You forget how beautiful it is to love and be loved back.
Instead, you learn to be practical and strong, that you build walls around yourself, not knowing that 'love' still has its own ways to barge in and make you realize that its always worth the risk.

That Overused Term.

Ever think of love? What are the chances that a person could fall in love madly and deeply, to the extent that it consumes them? 10 times? Or maybe only once? They say those who do not seek it, those who do not fight for it, might not even find it. They may spend their entire lives, either hung over someone who they loved and lost, or settle for someone they do not even love. Under societal pressures or because of their own loneliness? But people have felt that emotion throughout history. Some find it in separation, which is also known to be the strongest of all the loves that exist. The dire need to look at someone and feel alive. The missing that is so powerful that it overtakes your mind and body. In the times of quarantine, the strings of your own heart can very well be understood. It is all peaceful out and there is a certain deafening silence. It could make you hear your soul, for you have nowhere to escape. Immerse yourself in books and movies as much as you want, but

Revisiting.

When I was young, Oh, when I was young... Everything was so much fun. Had no dreams, had no pun, but oh, it was so much fun. The hugs from mama, learning skates, learning to ride a bicycle and the dance with papa. The fights with di and the games too.. Telling on her to mom and dad, and the midnight stories too.. No cellphone, no wifi, Even the cable was out, Had a playground, had a school, and there was plenty happiness, no doubt There were friends, who brought plenty smiles Them, I still dream of, After the closing of blinds... And now, Oh its still good,, With the new world around.. but the old days, I will always miss their sound.

You can't pass off as 18 anymore, can you?

Woh! I had one hefty weekend with my friend, who I was able to enjoy with after almost three years! Yeah, we met in between the years but it was either for only a few hours or something was upsetting about our life. Well, but this time around we had immense fun. We went out partying, and the next day to the campus where we spent all our time together few years ago, and realized how far we have come. We are two changed individuals, knowing how to carry ourselves in a better way than what we did in college. We can't pass of as 18 anymore, where we had a billion insecurities about ourselves and no clue where our life will go. We never thought much about ourselves and now we have a self-esteem which can't go wrong. Then. (2011) Now. (2017) Do we really look any different? Yet we are! The tattoo talks, the hair color talks and the talks about getting another piercing were not what we talked about "all the time".I was just checking out an article regarding t
