to meet
for mere hours…

-

grand gestures alone,
or if at all for that matter.





Remembering and doing
the small things that someone
wants, values, & looks
forward to.

We may be far away from her,
But we are as much hers,

It does not intrude when you want to be alone.

It does not judge.

I have to travel. Getting up early mornings may be great, but I can’t rise with the sun simply because I don’t get to set or call it a day when sun does…

Mornings - Excited (Yyyyaaaayyyy!!!! It’s Friday!)

Afternoons - Impatient (Ye office khatam kyun nahi ho raha?)

Evenings - Relieved (Office finally khatam!)

Nights - Sleepless (Kal chutti! Khaane mein kya banega? Plumber ko bulaana hai, courier bhejna hai, market jaana hai, kitne kaam hain!)

-

we slow down…

-

sleep…

Operating by the so called Indian standard time, equivalent to being late. Not for me. By 10, I mean 10, and not 10:45.
