I Carry You

I carry your smell away with me Not to miss you when you are not with me The innate odour I yearn to be with me Like the smell of a fresh rained soil, let it merge with me I carry your palms’ imprint inside mine Not to miss your caress when you are not with me The cage I long To lock me up and never let me go I carry your breath with me Not to miss your heart beats when you are not with me The unsung melody that makes me dance Let them make ripples in my abandoned river -Puvi-
