Two Musicians


 
 
"Auf welches Instrument sind wir gespannt?"
--Ranier Maria Rilke


There was your voice and a note
that sang inside and filled me.
When I smiled, I heard it booming
in the echo of your eyes.
There was music that night.

Later, when we were lost in arms,
we thrummed the clever harmonies
that deft hands had crafted
into the instrument that we shared.

We played and sang beautifully
like two strings on some invisible guitar.
