You came as if the spring came - Manpreet Kaur Preet

You came
As if the spring came
And a flower blossomed
At the turn of my life.
Now every evening,
Life brings me a new dream.
When you are away from me
The evenings call me over to you.
A gentle breeze brings
Your scent
And spreads it into my hair
And says: “I am with you,
I am your breath,
The one you’ve in your heart,
I am your that love.”

~Manpreet Kaur Preet
