Your soul appears familiar to me

Like a temple bell 🔔 ringing inside my soul.

A cat’s warm paw as it stretches in the sun. 🐈

A shiver of cool breeze after a long hot day 😎

The cadence of your voice a long ago song

The wideness of the world no longer a threat

When you came closer I felt a need to lay down weapons

Stand upright proudly for the first time in astonishment

Look to the east and witness the brightest dawn I’d ever seen

Understood that a softness awaited me

Inside of your arms.
