The presence
That showered
So much love
The hands
Initially cold
Then warm
The arms
Wrapped around
her own
Detached as much
She thought
She would be
The heart still absorbed
Every emotion
That was poured
The presence
That showered
So much love
The hands
Initially cold
Then warm
The arms
Wrapped around
her own
Detached as much
She thought
She would be
The heart still absorbed
Every emotion
That was poured
She was moving towards tomorrow
And moving away from today
Journeys that came
With a crazy mix of feelings
To look forward
To the little known
While being carried away
From the very known
To move ahead
Because you’ve been waiting to
Or so
She spoke to him less
When she missed him more
Tried to occupy herself
In things she enjoyed solo
Or which absorbed her attention
For some time or more
To be a minimalist
And to remain one
She realised, were
Two different things
When accumulation
Is encouraged
Consumerism
Highly marketed
Needed to
take a step back
And stay focused
On the basics
