Friendship's Day

Friendship's day: a day when friends get together to celebrate their togetherness, to celebrate the tears, laughters, joys and sorrows. Raise toasts to all those times spent together, and for more to come.

But on a day like this she chose to be alone. "Why?", a question pretty much unanswered. Maybe she wanted to celebrate the friendship she had with herself, her words, her thoughts and her solitariness. Maybe it was just that weariness overcame her heart and made her long to spend an unaccompanied day. Or was it just the transition she had made from being a girl drowning in dependency to someone independent or a loner, something still not known.

She just wanted to drown in herself, be with herself, read herself and know herself. 

Was this transition turning her into being an outcast?

(Lost in thoughts.)

Independent or Loner

She grew up depending on the close people around her for every little thing that happened.

Eating alone was like a punishment, as if made to stand in the corner back in school,

Watching movies alone was always heartbreaking, for there'd be no one to laugh and cry with.

Being alone anywhere scared her like the darkness scared little kids.

The strength of words, it can make or break just anything. And sometimes life takes it's harsh toll, and that's when thoughts strike up, changes take place and things happen.

That was what happened, a few words and her perspective changed. She now preferred being alone, being with the empty air, and a touch of silence. She now loved watching movies alone, because of the fear of crying in front of someone else.

Getting close to someone was like something alien, fascinating but not something she'd want to encounter.

What happened to her ? A few words and her world changed ? What happened to the girl who always drowned in dependency ? 

She is now lost between what's independent and a loner.

(Thoughts sprung out under the pressure of harsh words spoken by someone close)
