He left "I love you" on the voicemail
And now I know it's true
The voice my ears attuned to hear
Preserved in amber sweetness
No hallucination of the mind
So my heart melts in my veins and
I can't help but smile
Clutch my chest
Curl my toes
And the door of my world creaks open
As my eyes flood with light.
This is what happy is like
When I forget to be afraid.
