"Tell me a synonym of 'alarm'." Teacher asked.

"Mom." I answered.

Alarm

Dreams talk,
Lovers walk,
Friends mock,
Lips lock.

Mother saw,
Love a flaw,
Alarmed she,
Love did flee.

Walked close,
Slap dose,
Public goes,
Alarm snooze.

Alarm...🤔
Can there be a
day better than the
one which starts
with your mom's
wakeup call??

Why do mornings have to be this early? I would groan looking at my alarm. It was 6 am... 6 freaking 'o'clock on a Sunday. I hated my body clock! It always woke me early on weekends. And while I would struggle to go back to sleep, there he would be, just a kiss away, sleeping to his hearts content. I would perch on my shoulder and look at him. A gentle smile would play on his lips even as he slept. Was he dreaming about us? I knew I needed lullaby to sleep like a baby. In that moment, in his sleep, he would pull me towards him and caress my hair while I would rest my head on his chest, while sleeping to the soothing beats of his heart. They were the lullaby I craved.

Now, I see the space next to mine on the bed empty, I wonder 12000 km away from me, what is his lullaby to sleep?

From alarms to reminders,
surprises to scheduled messages,
Technology hide distances smartly.

She went to bed
With the pillow of his thoughts .

She rose from bed
By the clock of his memories .

তুমি আমার নষ্ট হয়ে যাওয়া ছেঁড়া বেল্টের রিষ্ট ওয়াচ্,
আমি তোমার ভোরের ঘুম ভাঙিয়ে দাওয়া বিরক্তিকর অ্যালার্ম ক্লক...
