My hair is considered weird in India. My hair is considered weird in Germany. My hair is considered weird in America. I am like a man without a home. But my hair and beard felt at home in Katie's hands. I stand still as the seasons pass me by. I put down my pen when my (aristocratic) work is done, and stare out of the window again. I feel like I am still 18 years old,- which is around the time I met Katie. 9 years of wanting to marry someone is a long time. Perhaps I am like a boy waiting to be picked up after school, whose parents, after years of loving parenting, one day never came. |
