Mitra

By Rishimaa Dave

Grown up, haven't we?

I haven't seen you

Or even though about you in years 

But yesterday, you crossed my mind

I wonder how you are now

What you are like

Do you still wear your hair the same way 

Or walk the same walk

I bet your voice has changed

You're taller, aren't you?

We weren't really anything to each other

Acquaintances, at most

But yesterday, i sat wondering

What happened to you

After the last time we saw each other

I never thought I won't see you again

But i never thought i would either

Would we get along the same way we did 10 years ago?

Or the way we did 4 years ago?

Our paths haven't crossed again

But if they do, would you recognise me?

I wonder who you are now

I do not want to be a part of your life

I want to look at you from afar 

Out of sheer curiosity for who you are

I wonder who you would be
