Seeing her bald seemed pretty fascinating,
While he wondered if anyone would ever look that beautiful without hair.

I die a little bit inside,
every time your delicate lips broach about her.

Yours,
only best friend.

We share a bond,
and poetries and songs in the spaces between.
We love ice cream,
and the conversations that come with it.
We dance,
and pour our hearts out into the lyrics.
We share hugs,
and giggle through those bedtime stories.
We steal kisses,
and some untold stories that peep through those peals of laughter between the drinks.
We gossip,
as if no one's watching.
We cry,
while watching movies and pamper each other after finishing.
We live in different cities,
and still, never miss a call a day whether it's for just five minutes or fifty.
We miss each other,
and write letters about it.
Distance.
The distance feels really unread between us.
Maybe.
Maybe, that's why we're just best friends and not lovers.

"You don't understand what it's like to be a parent.
Until you become one."

"But, I know one thing, and only one thing for sure.
I"ll never force my dreams on my kids."

The advertisement remarked, "Fair and lovely skin."
"Why not my colored skin?"
wondered the 7-yr-old oblivious to the misogyny of dark shades in the society.

"What is an indulgence?"
"A crispy sun-dried towel after a nice warm bath."

"When the sound of his warm breath was not enough
to fill the emptiness in our conversations,
I knew it was over."

she is a happy ending,
not everyone can wait for.
