7. Falling into your words
The sounds put my heart into animated suspension
and it floats and
for those moments I pause during the free fall.
It doesn’t even matter what they (those words) are.
The air in my heart is light
and fresh and teal and sparkling
after listening to you tell me your every day.
Raw unfiltered honey
of pure joy
seeping from my seams
especially after the warm rumble burst of my heart when we meet.
When we wake up
will we know how to tell our story?
Do we keep it to ourselves,
a slow-burning engine that pushes us through each day
and then sparks?
