One soul

One Soul

In a world of billions
Your soul brushed mine like a whisper
Your eyes found mine without searching
Pulling two distant worlds together
Into the gravity of one moment 

Two voices 
But one song
Two lives 
But one soul
Two hearts 
beating in time, 
writing love in every breath we share

Our souls speak 
in a language older than words, 
written in stardust,
echoed in dreams
where I always find you 

Between each quiet beat,
you stay with me- 
familiar in a way that lingers, 
like a story I never heard 
but somehow know by heart

Two voices 
But one song 
Two lives 
But one soul
Two hearts
finding home in each other, 
soft as a promise we never have to speak 

So I will hold this gently-
this fragile, infinite truth,
like something sacred
resting safely in my hands,
knowing silence 
could never pull you away. 

Because you are here-
in every breath I take, 
in every space love fills,
not just beside me, 
but within me, 
where you will always be. 

Two hands 
But one touch
Two breaths 
But one rhythm
Two hearts 
resting where they belong,
where you've lived, quietly, all along.
