Queer

The parents died; He institutionalized the lone queer sibling;
Never realized he had lost 2 - a brother and a sister!

Brother

Diverse communities; Different religions;
One mission; One Army;
Separated by death fighting for their motherland;
Brothers for life!

Sister

Hope its a boy this time, the mother prayed
While the little one in the corner
Shed a silent tear for her departed sisters!

Cigarette

"Thanks a lot for being such a breath of fresh air", she said and walked away
That moment the cigarette also perforated his soul!

Triumph

She carefully does her daily chores with her heart in her mouth
While the tiny lizard on the wall sits basking in the triumph of its might!

Blue

Usual blues
Strong urge to bunk
Reunion with an old school friend after 15 years.
Routine Monday train takes a turn down memory lane.

First

140 Character Limit - Check
Theme - Check
Excitement - Check
And she finally penned down her first Terribly Tiny Tale!
