She is looking at you
Her hair tied back in a headscarf
The sun sets over broad puddles left on the beach by the ebbing tide
The tide taking with it the sun
She kisses your cheek
Her eyes are open
Your eyes are open
You have the picture of that moment, a photograph
You don’t need to look at it to picture her looking at you
You looking at her
With her eyes open
With your eyes open
Holding the photo
You close your eyes
And she is looking at you
