Love and Longing: A Journey Through Absence and Desire

In the fire of his absence
she burns
In the rain of his longing
she bathes
In the sky of his oblivion
she paints a rainbow
In the storm of his passion
she loses her way
In his heavenly flute
she breathes an earthy tune
and takes his breath away.
