Relation-ship

On relation-ships

‘You’re my everything’, I said.

The first thing that came to your mind was probably a romantic relationship, but that’s not everything we have right?
There is a kind of relationship where you don’t talk for days, but you know that you’re still as comfortable knowing their deepest secrets or sharing your own.
A kind where all you obsess over is silly banter about food,books and movies.
The one’s where all you have are deep, philosophical conversations.
And maybe even the one’s where you just wish each other a Happy Birthday.
Some where you may be take for granted (leave immediately) or some where you take someone for granted.
Some which includes an exchange of books and assignments and some that have been silent for too long.
The beautiful one’s where you talk about anything and everything, and some where you’re only close because of a hobby or passion.
Then there are kinds where we laugh,cry, fall in love, are in awe and learn everyday
Some where you give advice, and some where you receive advice.
Certain one’s which are based on deep art and culture, and some which involves tic tac toe in the middle of class. The one’s where you go out for food and talk about daily life or some where you just sit in silence and stare at the moon.
There are one’s with comfortable silences and one’s where you talk over one another.
When you insult each other all day but you know you’ll be there for each other. The kind which no matter how long it’s been aren’t meant to be, and some which are instantly  made. Some involve calls once a week, and some everyday and some once a year, but they’re all special. There are one’s that you want to pause in the moment and just hope they’d never change. Some change and that’s for the best. In some you find home and at best in some the best version of yourself.

And somehow you put the pressure of all of these on one relationship, and then wonder why relationships fail?
