Safeena ~ Stories from Urdu

Safeena
(Urdu, noun; a boat)

A collage of faded news stories and matrimonial ads from 1983 make up her body.
Your grimy, 7 year old fingers had given her uneven edges and a sharp, curved nose.

33 years later.
Bent with age.
Water-worn.
She still carries your childhood dreams to the shore, every night.
