Listen

Listen

Can you hear

The rising crescendo
Against this soft rain and
The shriveling force
Of this lightening storm
A voice singing you to sleep
Provoking innocent dreams
Tinted by candlelight
Whispering this imperfect

This story between us

Can you feel

The tremble and the feel of devotion
A glimmer of hope
The smallest trick of light
Catching the essence of your eye
As if someone is
Tracing contrails through your memory
Like fingers through clouds
Painting this masterpiece

This story between us

Can you see

The break in the silence
As you curl those fingers tight
And scribble those instances
Doubts of insecurities as well as
The artistic outpour of happiness
These perplexing complications
Face the tranquil moons
As you design this euphoria

This story between us
