I Miss You In Everything...

You know what I miss about you

Those mysterious smiles

You and I exchange

When we sit face to face

On a boring metro ride

That extra seasoning

You sprinkle on your pizza

And then crying with teary eyes

“This is sooo spicy...

Please do something fast...”

That anxious eating of your lipskin

When you are lost in your thoughts

And then frantically searching

For a lip cream in your bottomless bag

Those babylike moans you make

When I sit on my study chair

And not on the sofa with you

To watch some ridiculously obnoxious

Romantic movie

That unstoppable giggle you break into

At the mere mention

Of ‘but’ in any conversation

And then turning red in shame

That repeatedly frightful shouting

Of my name

When a cockroach walks by in the kitchen

And you saying in panic

“Save me from him or I’ll die...”

I miss you in everything...

In the tilt of our picture on the wall

In the softness of our pillow

In the colours of my clothes

In the faces of all the people I meet...
