I Search Poem by Reshma Ramesh

I search myself
in the lines on your palm
in the the warmth in your arms
from the depth of your eyes
to the heart felt sighs
in the sketches that you draw,
the colours of the ink you pen
from your laugh lines
to the glint in your eyes
I search for myself


I search myself
in the sculpted chest
water, pure, that trickles
around your strong
contours, expressive eyes,
skin so smooth.
in dreams that you dream
the reasons you smile,
from the love that you feel,
to the love that you give
I search for myself

I search myself
in the folded palms
prayers that you pray
in the redness of the
wine that you sip
in the stem of the
goblet that you hold
in the whiteness of your shirt
the curves of your feet
I search for myself

Sequel to poem; I search myself' by poet Sadiqullah Khan
