I come from a meeting,
still stressed,
plannings and deadlines,
in my head.
Staring at the onions,
which look like they bake,
ten times slower,
as usual.
You come in,
with your big smile,
touchy hands,
and a mouth ready to kiss.
While turning the onions,
you come behind me,
try to hug my stressed body,
and fill it with joy.
And then,
the defrosting process begins,
bit by bit,
you patiently wait.
You patiently wait,
without comments,
without complains,
till I am unfrozen again.
