It's that time of the year
To forget all that one should forget,
To stare at the sun (for cheap #drama)
To burn images that hurts,
Is it the black or the white smoke
That remains of the preserved,
Resolutions will not last I know,
I'll reconstruct another set of you.

Our relationship reached a low plateau. Is it a saddle-point? Will one wrong step make us #descend to the agreed polite exit? Are there paths to unknown highs from the doldrums?
Seasons change, hair and teeth fall, bones become brittle, eyesight blurs, hearing fades...

He opens the door. She enters.
He places her luggage by the wall. Next to a #creeper. Hidden baggage. Hiding arrivals and departures.
Their eyes search each other’s. With tears and smile. He takes her right hand. Kisses it. She tenses. Tries to take her hand away.

When Amit wrote his 50th love letter (49 w/o reply), I warned him that such #devotion goes unreciprocated.
Yesterday:
"What do I do? After 49..."
"50."
"50th was to another girl."
"Ah! Have both replied?"
"Ah! Yes."
It's possible only such devotion gets reciprocated.

"If there are more than 2 #parameters in a physics theory, one can make an elephant go through a needle hole."
"And, how's that relevant on this date?"
"Love has too many unknowns."
"And, there are no elephants to go through any..."
"Shhh"
"Let's go home."
"Let's."

To be a proud #citizen:
1. Get the blessings of a religious leader in the village of one's nomadic ancestors.
2. Take 3 tests there:
a. Roll on hot coal.
b. Lifted to a great height, lowered suddenly and, on each descent, thrashed with metal pipes.
c. Need-to-know.

"Is this for your wedding photoshoot?"
"Yupp."
"You dressed up like a #tardigrade, your partner in birthday suit?"
"Yupp."
"Well, you are paying.
Coupling is crazy.
Who knows the right recipe?
Likes or opposites?"
"Plz take the photos."
"Yes, boss."

"Can I be your Swapna?"
That made me think.
"Who should be Swapna? Will I feel irritated with the wrong one? Am I desperate?"
I smiled at the young man. He seemed relieved not to get a reply.
"#Yes" would have put an end to all that she is not. And, all that she is.
