there are times when asked my name i almost say irisy janis. its complicated. took me months to pronounce the JAN in janis correctly. the name has a history that dates back years. 1999 delhi public school class 11 and there i met my best friend. little did i know that this one was for life. and he became my soulmate.
he was short , thin, fair with curly black hair. and he called me iris. when asked the meaning he told me ... Iris , iris means the goddess of rainbow and messenger of gods . and i thght it was coz he found my eyes pretty.
and janis.i did believe as a kid that i had a good voice and i was more than a bathroom singer but as i got older i saw the truth. he always thought i sang like janis joplin in her broken ,strained , choking voice. and there i was singing rock songs that he taught me just like her.
over the yrs we went our ways. different cities, colleges and even countries. but the bond never broke.even today whenever i think of him for any reason. he appears. somehow or the other. always. he has never failed me. i think this is what it meant when all those years back we said we are soulmates.
