we move in parallel motion.
what a reality check
it was
for me
to see your face
and not be disappointed.
to hear your voice
like it was all I needed.
your song has changed.
i wonder if you’ve noticed?
the tone that once comforted,
now soothes.
the words that once satisfied,
now heal
and wrap their familiar arms
around my quaking body
bringing me a serenity
i’ve never known.
