That's an Indian Mother!

12:10 p.m.
Message beeped, 'Class at 7 o'clock a.m. tomorrow'

'Mumma, tomorrow class at 7 in the morning. I don't want lunchbox. I'll have something in college.'

The next day.
I wake up at 6:15. Get ready till 6:45.
My mom woke up at 5 o'clock, busy preparing my lunchbox. At 6:20, she hands me my tea while making my lunch and simultaneously doing 3 more chores.

I shout, 'why do you do this? I told you I'll have something in college.'

She replies, 'Jab tak mai hu, mere haath ka khana kha le. Fir nahi milega.'

That's an Indian Mother! :)
God bless every mom in this world.

Breakup

'Passport, check.'
'Documents, check.'

'And us?', She asked.
'What about us?'
'Nothing!'. She left.

'Breakup, check.'

You & me were no more 'we'

And there came a time when I was standing alone on the road, bidding you goodbye,

with hopes as ravishing as life,

with smile as broad as sun's reach,

with blush as red as a rose,

with memories as alive as a playful kid,

the holding hand, the love gestures, the winks, the you, the me, the we.

Not everything works out- not you, not me, not we!

Distance grew, hearts cried, tears came alive,

broken we were!

And there came a time when I was standing alone on the road,

with no smiles, no blush but ample of memories- of you, of me, of we!
