journey to the center

composition, definition

your words make my ears tingle.
hearing them was familiar,
as if i had returned to a dream
of a second layer.

i remember how your words
feel like snow on my tongue,
curious and fleeting
but gently refreshing.

finally,
words sound like songs again,
distinct palettes
without the fog of passing whims,

Composition,
now that you have arrived:
hello again, how i’ve missed you.
