I caress every angle,
Every curve,
Every rise and fall,
Every swell of your unified chaos, caught,
Behind black bars,
The sonorous bass,
Like boulders rumbling beneath my feet,
Walking on the concrete,
Conducting my heartbeat,
Your resonant forte flowing through my veins,
Lighting a cold fire deep inside my chest,
Submerging my body in fluid sound,
Making my fingertips tingle,
As waves of audible emotion intertwine with my soul,
And let me feel,
But all must come to a close,
Everybody knows,
They sigh and say, "That’s just the way it goes"
Like ashes blown away on an errant wind,
You leaves me with a silence so loud, my ears ring.
But I can hear my spirit sing,
Like boulders rumbling beneath my feet,
Walking on the concrete,
Answering my heartbeat.
