When did I fall in love with you
/
I fell in love with you
When you brought home mangoes
Because I forgot in my deadline daze that soon they were going to be out of season.
When you started keeping two umbrellas in your car
Because I always forgot mine in the rush to skip the morning rush hour.
When you learnt how to make kadha
Just because you noticed how I would always sneeze after doing ballet in the midnight rain.
/
I fell in love with you
When I started finding the unfinished paintings
On my work table instead of the ‘I got stuck so let me just leave it’ bin.
When I felt the ice walls melting
And it getting easier to breathe.
When I realized I could eat a burger with you
And not worry about wiping the sticky sauce after every bite.
I fell in love with you
When I realized that your addition to my life
Was not a subtraction from my ability to just be
Myself.
