Of non-possibilities.
All of seventeen syllables
Describe this place.

Frankly, I don't think I can get myself to write much about it.

These days have been all about scampering through memories, thinking aloud the countdowns and then hush-hushing the other person when they do, hogging our favorite food items at the canteens, drinking and confessing, having loved and realizing, distracting ourselves from thinking we have less than 72 hours now. As I was emoting all that I wanted to say through Somewhere Only We Know at our very last cultural night last night amidst that batch that fervently applauded each of my performances over the past 2 years, I kept dreading the moment when I will walk out of that gate and turn back for one last glance. Leaving with my parents, I will feel like acting like that grumpy little 5 year old who wants to fake a stomach ache 'cause she doesn't want to leave home.

You've given me enough space to be myself and opportunities to do what I never imagined possible. I have and will never say this to anyone, but MICA - You complete me. (Beware of the waterworks)

Time trickles by
The last I checked
It was still a drop in the ocean.

When I look back
At the beautiful things they did
To make ugly decisions
Why did nobody tell her
Her mind was on a vacation
Even if she was far too busy
Knitting up the fragments of her imagination
She thought she would gift it-
The sweater that keeps him warm.

He was no Pavlov’s dog
I know ‘cause he stopped responding
To the music
That never meant to fool anyway;
He was going to be the king
Of the forest found
But never explored,
He tried to roar;
Was it too dense,
Or his legs were weak?
Either way
A coward remains one.

Did this movie have two lovers
Or two villains?
Each more lovely than the other
Each more vile than the other
Perhaps they were plain ordinary
And will be forgotten
Frame by frame
As time trickles by
Like a drop in the ocean.

Doctor: Do you often feel the need to get up at night to use the washroom?
Me: Nope. I do it before sleeping.
Doctor: *weird quizzical look, almost a duh*
Me: What?!?! My mom taught me when I was young.
Doctor: *rolls eyes*

Girl: The Pap Smear test is required only if you're married or sexually active.
Me: OK
Girl: I don't need it.
Me: OK
Girl: *waiting for an answer*
Me: Umm
Girl: *hands slightly going up in the air*
Me: Umm. ME NEITHER! Let's get outta here :D
