A Soft Voice

It's unusually refreshing to meet someone with such a confident personality, Your unusual accent for a native— The way, "Oh," sits on your tongue is superlative. What a strange serendipity for you to come across me. You ask about my inclinations towards music, Listening to me wander about my playlists without a sound. Drawing out the sound of my voice as your heart pounds: It does the trick. You warned me about things not to joke about, Late at night where our minds aren't thinking straight And my words slip as if fate... Now you've left without a word, deaf to my shouts. And here I am writing this poem, Wondering about the impossibility of meeting somebody so close, So quickly and intimately; with potential I suppose. My heart yearns for your return, sadness its hymn.

Met an incredible girl by chance, and I let something slip without thinking. And now she's gone within the same day. Brilliant.
