The first time I heard your voice, I was struggling to turn the music on my phone off. It was kind of a one of a lifetime opportunity to me. I was sure I wouldn't hear it agin. My thumbs fumbled on the screen like a caveman, missing the pause button a few times.
There it was. It was deep, rich , even. The way the foreign syllables seamlessly rolled off your tongue was enchanting. There was hardly any cadence in your delivery, but I couldn't care less. Maybe it was the slight slur or the hint of levity in your voice that drew me in. I had no idea what you were saying, not even a rough outline or a sketch. Maybe you could whisper the same words to our children when they have trouble falling asleep , or you could hum a tune of reassurance and comfort into my eardrums if I wake up sobbing. Maybe you could sink your teeth into the helix of my left ear or nibble at my bottom lip or bite into.....A club sandwich. Oh well. If that's your lunch.
I get it. They're the most affordable ones.
I guess.
Ew. I hate tomatoes.
