A Box to Fill Up

Once in this room, one afternoon
While rain water dripped at the window glass

And the room was deprived of daylight
I kept peering at the ceiling for no reason

Signs of you were in its every corner-
That small picture frame that kept your smile

Those piles of magazines you asked me
To buy regularly

That graffiti you wrote on the wall
With your lipstick

And the laptop full of logs
Of our chat when I was away

Today at 36 degrees Centigrade, I've got a box
I can't get myself to start filling up
