Description

It was a lukewarm and disappointing marriage. She came bearing a humble Christian spirit and a childlike body that recoiled from desire and feared the defilement of pleasure. She was an illusion, untouched by throbbing veins or turbulent blood. As my hunger and disappointment grew, I retreated into hatred and silence. I could have continued my seclusion in hatred and silence had death not overtaken her. Her departure was so sudden that I couldn’t even comprehend it. Now I remember vividly that time when I was returning from the cemetery. The sun blazed on the horizon like an explosion of desire and oranges. The sea was melancholic, and the mountains relaxed on their terraces, indulging in their evening longings. The universe was a gentle surge of joy, coursing through my pores. I felt a surge of hopes and desires leaping within me, creating a celebration fueled by longing and beauty. It was the defining moment of my life. I knew then that my destiny was to uncover the secret that had eluded me for so long.
