Lyrical Romance

A Poem by Tayla Li
"

Love is lyrical. Everything in love has its own cadence, its own rhythm, its own melody.

"

The sweet lullaby of his voice
reminiscent of each chord
played by cloud-dwelling angels
a beautiful harmony
recorded in the songbook
that is my soul
the gentle rhythm
that placates the fervent beating
of my heart
and plucks each string
in concordance with his own
a more perfect collaboration
whose lyrics rest
on the wings of seraphim
echoed by their sighs
as I float
on this melody that carries
the music of my heart
to his
the divine chorus
that is
love

I like this. Very sweet lines put together.

My fav. part was,

"that placates the fervent beating
of my heart
and plucks each string
in concordance with his own"

Damn, that was deep. I don't have my speakers hooked up, so I did not hear that voice of yours like I wanted to. I loved the parallel of music and love. Your metaphors and imagery was very good. So was your flow from what I can tell. You did a very good job in my book.
