#friendrequest

Dark red

To my adorable boyfriend who is feel depressed. But I'm glad he felt better with this ^^

Unlike the other day’s sans riot.

My lad is fast asleep,

His dad diligently into weekly upkeep.

I lay in our bed scrolling my phone,

laziness getting into my every bone.

Few minutes of mindless scrolling,

Eyes tired of constant staring,

Setting mobile in silent mode,

I shut my eyes like a toad.

Silence disturbed by a sudden notification,

This new friend request, one fine exhilaration.

This is my senior from school days,

More than a decade, we have parted ways.

Deviously I scanned his profile image,

His signature smile, still fresh as beverage.

He is squeezing his boy tight,

next to him his wife shines bright.

He presently works in an MNC,

It’s been years he migrated to NYC.

There is a picture of his mom and dad,

Like one perfect family posing for an ad.

His was the charmer of his batch,

His aptitude bet no one can match.

Gentle, outspoken, and extremely honest,

Of all the senior’s he is the warmest.

For many of my friends he is their first crush,

when he crosses them, they hush, and blush.

He was my librarian’s pet, Me, her constant fret.

She once punished me for tearing a book,

He helped me getting off the hook.

From then on, we smile and greet,

Until one day everything was sweet and neat.

We had all started for my birthday treat,

With bunch of roses, he proposed me in street.

Sobbing and crying, I ran out of the thatch,

Indeed, we had hit a rough patch.

That's, my senior from school days,

More than a decade, we have parted ways.

Now I gladly accept the invite,
