I think about you

I think about you when
the first light falls on the earth
and the grasses shine golden.

I think about you when
my eyes hurt and tears roll down
while chopping onions in the kitchen.

I think about you when
the cold water from the shower is dripping 
and drenching every inch of my skin.

I think about you when
the flesh in my body rejoices the flavors
of delectable dishes bouncing in the blood.

I think about you when
I look down in the water to see 
reflection of old, tired and drained me.

I think about you when
the darkness covers the sky around me
and the stars keep shining in the horizon.

I think about you when
the cool breeze in the night touches my skin
and reminds of your soft and hustle free caress.

I think about you when
my waist refuses to carry the burden 
and aches even while lying on a cozy bed.

I think about you when
the lungs relax and constrict to contain 
oxygen and stash carbon dioxide out of my body.
