Remains of a recollection
In a year, I will forget the light banter we had over drinks one December night. The air was heavy with unfulfilled hopes of the year and we were all but pouring our hearts out. Lights sporadically lined the deserted alleyway that guided our tipsy selves to a waiting cab. Your eyes were sparkling and I suspect it was an effect of alcohol (on you as much as on me), although in a year’s time, it...

whenever I come across a photo of us, it really unsettles me. I guess it’s because you’re the first boy I committed my entire life to. and it’s weird, remembering that once, we were inseparable; that I slept next to you at night and woke up next to you in the morning. it’s weird how we used to be so close, and now, we don’t ever talk anymore.
