Are you?

Hot water shower
for a pained back
Are you, my love
like cold cream
dipped in my tired feet
Are you

the winter sun
the hued sky
and that vastness
I see from atop
Are you the
morning air that
stretches expands
and fills me in
that mid night
stoned
sleepy
romance
and that dream
I wake up to
Are you
that link between
my body and me
that smile
that smell
that puts me to sleep
after a hot water shower
for a pained back
Are you, my love
like cold cream
Are you
My love?

This happens to you too

Too lazy
to sharpen

my kajal pencil,

I poke myself
in the eye,

every morning.
