When will I start missing you? I have never thought about it till the last few weeks! You have always been around me, Not in person, not even with your mind, But you were! You were all around me! In every thought, moment, and memory, You were there! My solo trips, they were never solo, We traveled together! I never gave myself a chance, To make me miss you! But last week! Last week, it happened! I forgot! I forgot your smell! I could no longer remember how you smell! I panicked, struggled, and even cried? I couldn't remember that too! It's not memories, not voices, not even fights that we remember! It's the smell! People say Some smell like coffee! Some like tea! and some like a lone cigarette!

Someone I knew, smells like a rainy forest, gloomy and sad, Another, like a ship sailing through an ocean of sweet lemonade! Yes! They all have unique flavors! They all are unique!...

It's scary! I remember her once say, He loves me! And oh, we are in love! And look at her now! Love is becoming just another word! Love is becoming just another sound! Love has become meaningless! Even I too have it for someone! But what if? What if it's the same love, that I saw moments ago? What if it is as worthless as a beautiful moon, shining before a sleeping poet? Pity! Life feels unjust! No Tea can heal me now! No Coffee can refresh me now! How can I live free, when life is busy making puppets? Hey fellow lovers! Hey fellow humans! Just ask, "Am I happy?" A reality check might help you live long! Happy and maybe fr...
