to Vanessa:
i am sorry
for all the times that
i call you when you’re sleeping
and get mad at you for nothing
i guess i don’t know
what good i have in this world
another friend
wouldn’t dream of calling back
and listening to me spout rubbish
because you aren’t just another
friend on the block, a passer-by
with a dimpled smile-
you are the better thing in my life.
to Aparna:
i am sorry
if i am angry at you for little things
and make you upset and blue
words fly like butterflies
from your fingers to form poems
beautiful and free, like your soul
nothing beats that small smile
and the good advice over the phone
and if i didn’t realise it sooner
i am sorry;
but you are one of the better things
in my life too.
to ranji:
i am sorry if
i am not there all the time
and get too angry sometimes
but you are like a little drop of
bright yellow sunshine goo
when things in my life collide
you fix them up with your jokes
and nothing seems to matter
in your peter-pan laugh
and i love you for all of that
because you are the better thing
in my life.
---------------------------------------
and i love you all
because al of you are like
ice cream on a hot day
& you are the best stuff
in my life.

hehe i love this charu!
and i agree with appu, i loved how you gave us each a little, heartwarming message, and summed it up in the end. ice cream on a hot day. mmmmmm...
heh. i don't have dimples. okay, maybe i have a stray one somewhere on my cheek. dimpled smile -grin-
and you don't make me mad when you call me in the middle of my sleep, when i obviously sound like a crazed zombie on the phone. you don't ok! lol.
and i know sometimes i can be a little 'difficult' and 'tempermental'. but hey. it's the 3 of you that just balance me out, so i won't be some gorzilla terrorizing the school. you guys 'balance my equation', if you get my scientific drift -winkwink-
sigh. it's so great to have you 3 as my girlfriends. believe me. i've heard so many times these annoying phrases, "why are all your friends indian?" or "are you going out with your indian friends?".
first off, i'd like to say that not all of you are indian (: and secondly, my 'indian friends' have names. they're charu, aparna and ranji. it's irritating sometimes when people see me and wonder why i'm hanging out with you guys, but they just don't get it. and who says i give a damn what they think? (:
love you guys loads, k?
and PS. you are inviting us to your WEDDING -smirk-

aaww
I loveeeeeeeesssssssssssssss this poem so so so so so so so so so so muchieeezzz. XD (Charu slang) Thank you so much and I was taken aback but well, became really the same person again believe me 
A small verse for each one of us in such a perfect way because I know it came from the heart. I know Ranji loved it now just wait till what Vanessa says.
hey, at the end of the day, you will still be one of my best friends and you will never change so there is no need to apologize but well....... you are forgiven!! now, let's go a lil' drink
AND.... CAKE!!!!!! 
ooo enough with the celebrations. I love how you know how my poems are done- just from my heart unto the canvas. and thank you once again for calling me a beautiful soul 
hey I thought jekoshe was jazz????? ooo no! I was watching the television and started calling someone all that jazz
sheesh warn me next time. walking in the rain is really nice and it reminds me of home and how paper boats used to float away on rainy days and nothing really mattered. and the nose pickers society was so not funny. but well, it was a joke after all. I can't wait for today and all the crazy things which may happen. There sure will be so many more experiences. and I will never forget the creepy stories we told and how freaked out I got. more soon~ the thing is I forget though 
"but you are one of the better things
in my life too." that is more than enough for me. and the last two stanzas were so sweet it made me want to eat ice cream. and here's a little music for you~ ok, I am done with my comment but I just want to thank you again for being a lovely friend who has done so much for me and been there through all the crazy times like a rollercoaster. and believe me, I will be your friend forever.
loveeeees,
transit~

oh my gosh charu! this is sooo sweet! you're a lovely friend and i am honoured to have recieved such a beautiful poem by you from you... i am not quite sure what i'm saying right now. but hey, i am very touched (the classic ranji line, hahah) anyhoo, this poem is really deep and so right from the heart and every word here tugs close to my teensy weensy heartstrings!
You are just sooo sweet to have written this honey. (okay i'm listening to honey money : unnecessary? yea, i gettit) i'm so glad to have met a friend like you, because you my friend, have totally helped me evolve from a quiet girl (yea, i know, hard to believe huh?) to whom i am now. its totally the crazy things we do together that has made me like this. honestly, i didn't really like the rain before i met you (i have my reasons okay, the main one is because it stopped me from going to the playground
) but now, i love the rain. i may not want to walk in a heavy thunderstorm sometimes (okay most of the times) but common, i'm the tallest amoung us all, i dont wanna be struck by a lightning FIRST!!! but hey, that so doesnt reduce my love for the rain AT ALL... not even a little. i still remember that day we ran in the rain, all soaked, and it was FUUUNNN! see, i love the rain, and i think everyone can tell, from my poems because i cant stop myself from comparing beauty to the rain. its gorgeous in its own way. and you opened my eyes to that.
dude, and as for the angry part, common, we're friends... friends fight, and they make up. and i'm so so so sorry for being so "not understanding" sometimes... and im sorry if i get angry with you so easily, coz i notice that happened quite abit recently. i dont know what got onto me. maybe its your hair. haha... gettit? okay, i'm gonna stop now. but you know what, though i give the grumpy face and the fuming mad face, you know i cant stay mad you soo long. i might turn into a gorilla, and i dont want to. but like seriously, i just cant stay mad for so long, it makes me feel guilty. (DONT USE THAT AGAINST ME) ooh, and i'm so sorry for being, what you'd call an inceberg, sometimes. i dont mean to hurt your feelings. i never did, and i never will. coz it'll be like a sin to hurt someone so dear to my heart's heart. (wowe, thats like two hearts in one go... hahah)
My laugh is nothing like peter-pan's... tho he's a weh heh hey. oh, and talking about weh heh hey's i love it when we talk about weh heh heys... those that we see in the bus (remember the one i had sparks with... i wont forget that one) and a gazillion others that we just see randomly walking on a random sidewalk under the random sun. and aparently, we have different tastes. sadly
but i dont care... i still love you!
oh and talking about embarrassing moments. please, i think we're at the top in the "embarrassment list". woot, its a pity, but hey, we laugh about it in the end dont we? oh and buddy, i know i suck with advice, but i'm glad my corny stupid jokes actually make you feel better. (i knew you found the pooh bear joke hillarious!!! LOL)
oh.my.gosh. this comment is like really long. i'm sorry i'm gonna stop now. but seriously, thank you for this poem hun, you made my night! (its 10.02pm now) and you're seriously an amazing friend, and you're definitely one of the best parts of my life. >.< LOVE YA TONNES!!! and smile always, and know that i'm always gonna be here for you... ready with my intelligent jokes!!!

I was just going to say friendship is never having to say you are sorry. A friend is there through it all willing to help you take the strain from your shoulders. Great job.
