Escapist

I was browsing through my cupboard when I felt the touch of something familiar, something which almost beckons your soul. It was my school uniform, a milky white T shirt with ‘St Xaviers Institution’ stitched onto it. Little did I know before that such can be the power of a mere fabric -   I could almost smell the fragrance of those days, the moments that I had both loved and hated – the people, teachers, friends that I miss so dearly and even the ones that I never thought I would miss.  Now I have a new life, a whole new routine, a fresh opportunity to prove myself. But looking back at those days, I can ever only wish to be an escapist and time-travel my way back to them.
