I have found traces of intimacy in the mundane. It is quiet, woven in daily rhythms Beyond dialogue and loud performances It is still -neatly folded in the background. It’s in halfway smiles, that never ask to be noticed In the rhythm of your walk—thunder some days, shuffle on others—but always yours. Its in the kind of silence that isn’t empty but shared. The sacred hides in small rituals, It lives in my sister’s mornings, She hums half-songs as she gets ready for work - shuffling through the rooms-doors left half open-clanking cups as she makes coffee- drifting into the shower, where minutes fall like water-the eternal race against the clock. She scatters joy like prayer without knowing it, hymns of sunlight drift into corners of our home. And yes, she’s late- again, but her lateness feels like a warm gift. This is how love arrives- quietly, in the familiar, asking only to be noticed.

The intimacy in noticing
It is said; When lonely hearts meet, a cosmic show begins. Dying stars awaken and dance once more. Venus and all the brightest stars Shift their hemispheres to catch a glimpse. It's the coolest light show across space and time. Okay, no one says that Just me. It was the simple things Your warm alluring smile, The different shapes your face would take When you talked about mundane things, The glimmer in your eyes when you got excited And when you laughed-       When you laugh, a shooting star stops in her tracks to catch a  glimpse. With you, My days are less empty My heart less heavy When you say my name My lonely heart sings.                                Then you left                                 And Now...
