A month of happiness

a month of happiness,
a month of joy

a month when time flew,
a month when responsibilities grew

a month of discovering that you cant cook,
a month of believing that you have to keep trying and that you
probably should

a month when insecurities surround you,
a month when bankruptcy found you

a month when you rise before the sun does,
a month when inlwas and parents call constantly and you treat it like
a curse

a month of stained shirts, a month of bright bedsheets,
a month of pressure cooked rice and a month square chappatis

a month of friends telling you "I am out wih friends"
that they will see you the coming week,
a month of being cross with your partner because the swaad in the dal
was 'also' weak

a month of worrying, a month of building
a month of arguing, a month of rebuilding

hoping months will fly, faster than time
maybe marrying your love after all, is not such a crime
