All my life,
there has been something
that sang within me.
I heard this song
everywhere I went,
this lovely melody
that called to my spirit.
It was as if someone
had turned the volume down,
keeping it low so as not to
wake anyone else.
I would try to tune into it,
to hear it more clearly,
but it remained soft.
I wished for you,
for someone that I thought didn’t exist.
The music was at its strongest
when I wished for you,
and pictured who you would be,
as if a gentle wind flew underneath the notes
of music within me and lifted them higher
so that I could hear them more clearly.
When I met you,
the music increased in volume
until I didn’t have to strain to listen to the notes.
They rang right through me
and my spirit sang when you touched me.
I came to realise that you were always there within me,
waiting for the moment we met
in order to fill me
with light and song.
