IN EVERY TOMBOY’S LIFE A TIME COMES……

Dedicated to all the tomboy “gurls ” out there…
In every tomboy’s life a time comes……..
When others opinions start to matter.
When she finally understands the difference between an eye liner and mascara….
When her sports shoes spend more time in the shoe shelf…..

In every tomboy’s life a time comes……
When she’d rather be known as Abha Deshkar-“the one with pretty shoes” than “Abha Deshkar Tendulkar”….
When she dumps her t-shirts and shops for halter necks…
When traditional dress is something more than –kurti n jeans….

In every tomboy’s life a time comes……..
When she turns to “Bombay times” before the sports section….
When she asks for advice on lip gloss….
When “when u say nothing at all” comes before “it’s my life” on her playlist…..

In every tomboy’s life a time comes……..
When she wants to look beautiful and makes conscious efforts for it…..
When she buys those uncomfortable heels rather than the trustworthy floaters…
When she starts to flirt…with her finches 🙂

In every tomboy’s life a time comes……..
When she starts taking interest in the kitchen….
When she misses her train coz her hair just won’t turn the way she wants them to…..
When she no longer mocks at girls who take hours to get ready…..

In every tomboy’s life a time comes……..
When she is no longer embarrassed of hugging her mom on the airport…..
When she feels that its “ok” to cry in front of others….
When the first word that comes to her mind on hearing marriage is not “YUCK!”

In every tomboy’s life a time comes…….

-Abha Deshkar.
