have you ever met the boy?
you can easily pinpoint what boy i mean if you close your eyes and listen for the song his soul is faintly singing, his heart beating in time with the melody.
if you listen to his soul song and heartbeat you will see explosions of colors that don’t exist
beauty will surface within things you’ve deemed ordinary and insignificant
the stars will dance against the velvet sky and the sun will shine just a little longer
if you listen to his soul song you will begin to feel the urge to dance
to sing
to paint or write
to run and jump
to do anything that ignites the fire in your chest
the warmth of his lingering love keeping you so cozy that not even the bitter winter winds can touch you
if you listen to his soul song
your soul will stir from its hiding place behind the walls of your heart
and
if you’re one of the lucky ones
your soul can sing alongside his in the most mesmerizing melody that even the saddest hearts will rejoice at the sound of
close your eyes and listen beyond the words that he traces on your skin
listen beyond his laughter ringing through your mind
listen beyond the whispered “i love you’s” that are exchanged in the early morning light
while you’re pressed to his chest under the covers
capturing the sleepy kisses that tumble from his lips
if you listen to his soul song
you will hear the way you make him happy
the way he is thankful for you
and how you’ve revived his belief in happiness
you will hear the way he wants to wake up next to you
and only you
forever
listen closely
can you hear it?
