Kissing your memories with my lips
As I wrap myself in the embrace of your warmth
Yes, you are far away but it is as though you are here
Your presence lies within the folds of my shawl
On the top of the pillow,
By the table in the study
Your fragrance follows me wherever I go
I see you looking at me when I catch a glance in the mirror
I feel you as the air caresses me
Like you have sent blessings from wherever you are
You taste the food I make and relish every bite
You listen to my stories and wish me good night
You hold my hand when my heart trembles
You stand by my side in every joy and hurdle
You know the words to say to console me
You know the music to play to soothe me
I have you right here with me in my heart
Kissing your memories with my lips
As I wrap myself in the embrace of your warmth.
