you said something that day
whispers of a twilight river swirling in your eyes
i could then only catch faint notes
of a long forgotten song gently entwining our
movements at dusk.
i held a breast behind frantic shadows in a
window frame at a sudden corner of a breath.
another road rushed reaching the banyan tree behind our
house
growing in a groove on a tall sky.
i saw the rustle of the mustard fields in
unison with the mosquito net and your eyelashes
that wrote in the dark
