The rapid “tick tock tick tock” of the clock
Slowed down when you entered the room
It eased into hypnotic rhythms
And matched my shallow breathes
Which slowed down, even though my heart beat sped up
I could sense our souls overlapping
As they always do when we are near
An instant familiarity
Kindred spirits
Two hearts that yearn for adventure
Dream of tomorrow
Dance in optimistic visions of the future
As the world burns
We have hope
And I think that is why I’ve fallen in love with you
We march to the beat of the same drum
