let's dance to a lullaby.
one we've heard
on repeat
for our entire
lives.
one we can't
quite place.
one we've
known
and
sung
and
loved
but can't
quite place.
it's on the tip
of our tongues, though.
we can taste it.
it's the one that
opens us up
and forces
the hardness
to soften.
the one that
made me fall in love
the one that
made me smile
the one that
made me realize
that fingertips
are a profound
statement of
affection.
piano keys
cello strings
and everything
in between.
let's dance to that lullaby.
the lullaby that made us soft.
