He gave me a saree and said
"Every time you wear this, imagine it's a hug from me"
He gave me a new lipstick
"With every swipe, imagine my kisses"
He gave me new earrings
To imagine him nibbling my ear
A matching necklace
To imagine him burying his face in the crook of my neck
And when the distance felt overwhelming
I donned the saree, the lipstick, the jewelry,
And felt it all again
His loving embrace, his kisses, his touch
Even long after he was gone
