| one faint thin line one same plain rhyme split in short delays heart skips then stays step after step up stairway light small notes adept tapping fingertips slight you speak first breath i murmur back soft two streams beneath breast slowly intertwined soft rhythm wraps your side each note inside drawing tight and slow soft breath turns to rain drifting close and low beats fill every space glow fades soft and mild brightness rises slow and mild one line endlessly styled orange clouds gently wild octave side by side we ride one vocal line you and i soundless air drawn close inside chest unfurls like gentle tide bend the note slight melody winds and sways simple rhythm's height drift toward window days you hold the lower key uphold my gentle tone i soar above to see draw fine arcs on my own names hide in the wind heartbeats intertwined harmonies collide clouds of soft sound rise singing soft and light fill the quiet room inside glow fades soft and mild brightness rises slow and mild one line endlessly styled orange clouds gently wild octave side by side we ride one vocal line you and i soundless air drawn close inside chest unfurls like gentle tide long vowels drift afar glide soft past your star round and round apart return to where we start till there's only one small tender spark in the dark one thin line fades apart drift soft into the dark |
