7 in the morning, Shutting off the irritating alarm as it goes beep beep, Squeezing my eyes due to scorching sun, And rolling out of the bed, lazily.
A house, Living on my own, Door dashes and domino's orders,
Once in a blue moon I do clean ; with Hair tied up in a bun, And blasting high volume pop hits, Watering dead plants, Washing dirty dishes, Lying tired on the floor, After all those chores.
Weekend parties and Productive weekdays A woman paying bills, Rents and taxes.
Is all I thought, I planned, I'd be by twenty three!
Oh shit, did I pour a lot? Out of your heart? You may ask I say; "Into the bowl"
I was getting ready to bake blueberrymuffins, Hands were busy but mind was indeed busier,
As I put the right amount of all purpose flour, next goes baking soda along with a teaspoon of baking powder. Little bit salt and butter. Don'tforget the sweetness as in sugar. 1/2 cup would be just enough.
So coming to my 22nd birthday When things took a huge turn, Downhill? You may ask, I say; "To the peak"
You were never a part of "The plan" Late night calls, Roller coaster rides, Ice cream on rainy days,
The first ever sunset I watched, It was all magical, Just like you.
There was definitely something; in your eyes, Which made me, Stare at them all day, So deeply, so closely.
Warm, safe and happy Were those days... Until something cracked,
Just like these eggs. I put 2 large ones and gave it a good mix. Some oil and milk, to be precise 1/3 cup of each. I made sure I used the finest berries, just like your love for me.
I had cancer, Docs said I'd die, And all I wished was, For it to be a bad dream, Just so, the next second I'd wake up, In your soft embrace.
I wanted to, See you, Be with you, For the rest of my life. I didn't wanna break our promise, "Grey hair and White beard, Together, forever."
But you kept quiet, Held me tight, Helped me get through it, With all your might.
You put a ring on my finger and said "We'd made it out of this mess"
After all these years, I finally say; "Darling, we made it!"
All I remembered was, that night, Your shirt was completely wet, And soaked in my happy tears.
I popped the muffin cups into the oven, And waited for it to bake while, Admiring your diamond on My ring finger.
The next morning was the first ever time, I baked you,"blueberry muffins" And it's still "yourfavorite!"
It was ready, Fully baked, Fresh and crisp! And when I took a bite, All I could say was;
"Nothing has changed."
