Force Restart

-

Plan carefully - backup has a backup that has a backup

Try sincerely - type it out, AI who?

Hope quietly - stare at the three dots

Adjust constantly - settings > general > software update > auto updates : On

Lose unexpectedly - cannot connect to Wi-Fi, network unavailable!

Smile politely - open camera, portrait mode

Say - "It's okay"

Mean - "It isn't"


And the award for Best Performance Under Pressure


goes to...


"That's Life!"

    Behind every ‘it’s okay’ is a story only the strong learn to smile through.

Lately, my routine has started to root, Even my groceries greet me en-route. “Hey, pick me first, don’t waste the pursuit, You’ll flirt with tofu, dream of fondue, Then boomerang back like you always do.” My couch has memorized my descent, It knows the exact spot where I’ll always be bent. “You again? Same dent? Should I just charge rent? Same slump, same show, same scrolling zone At this rate, I’m basically your first backbone.” I wash the dishes, spoon after spoon, Then—bam!—another one shows up like a jump scare cartoon. Finally done, here comes a pot, that keeps fighting and won’t fit in the lot! Finally yells, “Bro, I’m too big for this spot!” Weekly laundry—my never ending fate, Spins, dries, and piles up like it’s late for a date. “Fold us now,” they chant with flair, “Or we’ll wrinkle up and judge you from the chair” To a point my socks whisper, “Alright, we’re outta here.” Each night I swear, “Tonight I’ll sleep tight,” Lights go off but my screen burns bright. My phone winks,...

Isn’t it?

Isn't it stupid, we have so many questions to ask but choose to be quiet? Isn't it whimsical, we pay extra for noise-canceling but can't escape inner thoughts? Isn't it odd, we crave adventure but always take the same route home? Isn't it absurd, gym costs more than Netflix but Netflix has seen more marathons?   Isn't it funny, we want to be good with food but the food isn't good with us? Isn't it weird, we want to travel the world but get tired walking to the fridge? Isn't it ironic, we take out left overs from restaurants like our trash isn't already overfull? Isn't it ludicrous, we buy ergonomic chairs for comfort but end up sitting on the edge anyway? Because what would Lady Whistledown be famous for then? Because inner ramblings throw a party and forget to invite our ears. Because our GPS has a masters degree in Dijkstra's algorithm. Because Netflix marathons have more plot twists than our gym routines. Because food's relationshi...

Was I?

*A poetry based on an inspiration* Ever thought — maybe I was wrong? Would things have been different, had I not listened to the inner me all along? Had I stayed when most signs proved — pain lifelong, said this was normal, nothing yet to be withdrawn, convinced myself leaving seemed a battle not won, Had I buit strength, kept quiet and somehow carried on, let my trembling heartbeat find its own song, remained tethered even when it felt long gone, waited for answers no one else could look upon, Had I called silence peace, though it only prolonged, believed the waiting was proof I was strong, taught myself more patience, thinking things would move on, pushed my endurance for something lasting and long. Had I not taken that decision so headstrong, would I have been where I belong? Well? Nah….. I was not. Period.                                             ...
