I hear your voice, my mind straining.
Soft, distant and so pure with love.
Your words caress me as I listen.
I hear you, you fill my ears with joy.

Can I not ever see the face behind?
Does my memory only hold sounds?
Given a chance, will you give me love?
Embrace me with your tender voice.

A calling Loon echoes your own call
Doves in trees voice love as do you.
Softly I hear those chosen words sent.
Madly I scramble as my heart fills.

Alexander Graham Bell saw you in dreams.
Your vision created his creation for us.
Without Bell, would I have ever known?
Would our worldly paths have ever crossed?

My dearest, if I cannot hear you, I will wither.
The flower within me, no longer watered, dies.
A soul filled with angelic sounds lies still.
This heart beats weak  as words are not heard.

Each time you speak, I jump with true joy.
Like a child after candy,   I prance and dance.
I live for each moment that your  voices touches.
I breath a breath that I might speak in return.

Give me your voice that I might carry it.
Share it that I may eternally enjoy.
Whisper softly your most intimate thoughts.
Shout to me the joy you have, and we share.

In my dreams I will see you, I will hear you.
I will cry joyful tears as my ears are touched.
In my dreams I will hold you, ravish you.
For your words spoken take me away.

No one writes romance like you, Magnus.  So vivid and descriptive.  A sincere honesty echoes throughout each and every line.  Lovely work!  

All writing comes
by the grace of God.

Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away.
