Obsession

August 11, 2020 by Poornima Manco

Then there is that dimple in your shoulder, the one that my finger touches repeatedly, dipping in and out. In and out. At other times, it is your gap-toothed smile that catches my attention, a tunnel into that full-bodied laugh. Your hair, a curtain – thick, dark and heavy like the forests of our past. Your smell, like the sea – salty and full of secrets. My hand traces the curve of your stomach, lined by life and children. My eyes try to peer inside your soul. Each time we meet, I rediscover you. Only to lose you once again.
