Dear Gurgaon,
Today I sit at my desk to write a letter to you, my love.
You embraced me when I played in your arms during the rain.
@dean.priya

Your green cover, birds chirping, women giggling while going to the well, and children playing in the pond. I miss that all.

Both of us have forgotten each other. Maybe I have failed you more than I used to love you.

The beauty you had when the corn used to grow was like your long hair, yours with the mustard flower on your long silk hair.
