can’t stop smiling in inappropriate situations

منزل ملیگی، بھٹک کر ہی سہی
گمراہ تو وہ تھے جو گھر سے نکلے ہی نہیں
मंज़िल मिलेगी भटक कर ही सही
गुमराह तो वो थे जो घर से निकले ही नहीं

i want to be twelve and at a sleepover, seven to a queen sized bed, five on the floor, covered in mosquito repellent and sporting a moustache someone drew on me when i fell asleep for five minutes. i want it to be 3:34am and i want hear about how i would meet the love of my life.
i’m very good at ripping people out of my life like they’re pages in a sketchbook and i haven’t drawn something worthwhile in months

Just some school function things (Dance edition)
[Because I miss my practice sessions and zero periods for rehearsals and so do you]
The new circular issued for zero periods for annual function or any school function makes you smile secretly at you friend. 'Yaar ab maze honge pura practice aur masti'
Auditioning for major and minor roles. If somehow you were well known by dance teachers you would get to play a 'good part'
Other subject teachers asking about how many students are taking part for the upcoming function.
Children for xyz play come to the auditorium for practice! Choir group head to the music room! And so on....
From just two zero periods for practice and rehearsals to conducting practice the entire day. Who cares??? Physics ma'am aur test nahi legi
'Bring dupattas for practice!'
Bonding with students from the other sections.
Run through rehearsals a week before the main function.
'No talking backstage!'
Costume rehearsals! You either get the best ones or the worst ones.
'Ma'am size fit nahi horhi.' 'Ma'am the button is missing from the jacket.' 'Ma'am isme naada hi nahi hai' 'toh ghar se lana hai na pagal' (says some dance mate from your group)
Getting to see your crush perform or your crush watching your group perform and they see you too. 'Play aankho mein teri... '
'Bring safety pins, juda, nadaa, ghungroo, bindi. Bring xyz colour leggings/tights. Keep all your costumes in the green room and they should be kept neatly.'
After the last practice everyone feeling nostalgic and wondering how did a month pass so fast. 'Yaar ab aur practice nahi hogi. Ab sare periods krne padenge aur books lane padenge.'
(Feel free to add more) will make a part two on things happening on the main function day
Missing games period for constant, overwhelming rehearsals and getting to know "Aaj toh maths ke period mein bhi ma'am ne dumbcharades khilaya."
That adrenaline rush while waiting for your group's turn and watching little kids with oh-too-rosey cheeks and bright red lipstick dancing on des rangeela with tricoloured attire on.
Bringing clothes to change in after performance and "Haye, mai marjawa" after seeing your crush in civil clothes.
Devouring mediocre samosa and sipping frooti after the event all the while chatting with your partner(s).
the perfect person exists at the cross section of chandni raat ho gi, taaron ki baarat hogi and gali mein aaj chand nikla
I can’t marry outside my culture because how am i going to explain that i pretend to be a snake and my friend pretends to be a snake charmer while dancing

Indian poets be like “Crow, Oh Crow, you can feast on the flesh of my dead body as much as you like, but please do not eat my eyes for I still have hope of seeing my beloved one last time!”
