‘MASKED’ FEELINGS…

A friend’s birthday.

Memories refreshed.

A catch in the throat.

A check on myself.

Back to normal life.

One question : Can Life go back to normal ever again…?

Time and again, the entire day. Same question driving me mad.

Answers searched desperately. None found.

Realisation. Was a half-hearted attempt in itself…..Years of habit.

Not a part of celebrations this year.

Restless mind. Shouldn’t matter. Yet huge difference.

One birthday message. For old times’ sake.

One polite Thank You. For the sake of formality.

Question finally answered.

Friends then. Strangers now.

Quick transition. Slow adjustment.

Happy realisation….That’s Life..!!
