An evocative poem of love and longing, by Sumana, exclusively for Different Truths.
I think someone knocking
At my closed door
He is waiting for my footfall
On silent marble floor.
Hello! Is it me
You are looking for?
You felt never before
Am I that feel?
That make your heart heal?
Am I that thought
That obsessed your entire thought
Am I that presence, you want to feel
Just after God?
