Every Song Sings Your Name...

Every word escapes from two small headphones
soothing my soul with divine love so unforgettable.
My yearning heart dips into a pool of butterflies,
tingling me eternally, as continuous songs sing various melodies
so sweet, screaming your name as I listen close.
Thoughts of you evolve into lasting desires.

Soaking in every beautiful lyric full of passion,
each engraved into this soul that longs your touch.
Time elapses as songs continue to flow delicately,
uniquely shouting your name through my ears.
These emotions are impossible to dissolve in this water
full of heart-shaped monarchs that scream your name.
