Lovely Symphony

You're like music to my ears
a combination of
notes on pages in my
book of life
A symphony so nice & beautiful 
even the angels sing your
tune as there's 
an aire about you that
gives us both air
beneath our wings
My heart sings when I think of
the two of us together 
as you're an expert at pulling
on its strings
We are each others instrument
the way we play 
& act as if we don't know how
to say what we feel
This is me being real with myself
as well as you
& knowing you read my heartfelt 
music makes me want to
say what's true
Our love is beautiful in a way
that stands out
head & shoulders above
the rest even if we keep
those feelings 
close to the vest 
I digress as I'm being spun
backward into memories 
of our beautiful symphony 
that can only be described with
the most descriptive words
In other words the sheet of music
we share is incomparable 
& I wouldn't even try to compare 
Rather I seek to spare myself 
the torture of having
to further replay our records 
though they are classics
I don't need glasses to see what
we mean to each other
but at times it's rather
translucent 
so there's space to get lost 
inside loves confusion 
I'll take that hit every time though
& endure the contusions
because sometimes love does hurt
even if we're under the
influence of the drug of
illusion
