Duet

Shadows crawl 
out haunting 
In first ray 
of light 
Coaxing awakening 
Striking the soul 
Fluttering deepest eyelids 
Music strikes 
Upon cello cords 

Dreamily she awakens, to a gentle strumming, of his soul 

As a piano plays 
Sweet haunting music 
Flows a riverine 
Echoing against 
One great wall 
In China 
carries into 
the distant hills 

Her deepest breath, wrapped lovingly, around his spiritual purity 

Music begins 
stirring deep passion 
Romancing chambers 
Dancing on air 
Holding heartstrings 
Playing emotions 
Sweetly within 

Inhale and exhale, transcending into, each other 

Touches beauty 
Striking keys 
Drum beating chords 
magical fingers play 
Enchanting music 
Flowing into 
the ocean 

Her melodies, rise and fall, exquisite synchronicity 

swells out 
In blossoming 
Like honey golden 
Ebbs out 
in cello 
Piano touching heartbeats 
A paradiso 
of music 
Sweetly touches souls 

Heartstrings, once plucked, never stay the same
