I open my eyes inward and catch a glimpse of you- smiling
The syllables of your heart paint in me a masterpiece as
their meanings clear cut my core- to listen
I find myself close to your heart- flung wide open
Where an eternity of tiny pixels made of dainty seconds turn
moments into memories- that last forever
I sense the clinking of praise echo deeper than my scorning
rejections- I let go- I offer gratefulness
Whispers of love enter where I walled love in- against the
world- we go deeper
Beyond the resonating residue of times I resented you to a
place I cannot resist you
And when I look into your face I see a resemblance of myself
Tendrils softly curl about your eyes as they twinkle my name-
“Beloved”
In this moment you have captured my heart- again and again
I catch my breath and learn to live anew- restored for
another day
