In the language of music,
Converse with my soul.
Lift me up.
Without criticism,
Free of cynicism.
Chords of kindness,
Shared in silence.
Chords of care,
Echo in my ear.
How are you?
I am fine.
Yet, you read into the line.
Your heart listens,
Tugs at the strings of mine.
Mellow gestures; notes that speak,
I feel moisture upon my cheek.
You allow me that space,
A strum of grace.
The rhythm of feeling.
I change my tune.
Awaken from my trance.
Begin to dance.
Such power in the lyrics you play!
The melody of your friendship,
Surrounds me to this day.
