how is it with you everything feels natural and right?
I didn’t think I could find someone I could talk to
without my heart fluttering uncomfortably in my chest
like a bird locked in a cage, just yearning to be free
wanting the conversation to end
do you know my heart flutters with you--
with a strange happiness?
I always believed love should feel like a release
and not a restriction
but it was difficult when with every soul
I find absolutely no pull
no connection
tell me this--
can you feel it too?
because I’m constantly in awe of this, of you
I’m left with wonder at our intertwined existences
how suddenly it could happen,
and how surprisingly right
nothing is forced or clashing
it simply merges and flows
there are some things too wonderful
for our finite minds to comprehend
that perhaps our souls just know.
