When you leave
Leave the windows open.
Donot draw the blinds
upon your receding back.
I shall be watching
till you disappear .
But you never do.
You are there in the breeze
that wafts in
the clove of your freshness
the mint of your smiles
the essence of your presence.
I remain
till the night brings
you back to me.
Through the open door
a powerful gale
overturning me.
