All That is Love

a collaboration with Trace

In the whisper of twilight

the sweetest passage of a song

slips into dreams

I run to you

gathered to your heart

 

all that is me

 

 

I float upon the strain

beating in soft repeat

a melody to my ear

peace to my soul

forever a part of me

 

all that is you

 

 

Embraced in the harmony

a melody that sings to us

that reverberates between our hearts

the beat of two souls

a serenade of

 

all that is love

Great collaboration...the lines and stanzas are really quite seamless, and that is not easy to do when writing with someone else. Your styles match up quite well. Love the imagery and the soft, almost elegantly ethereal feel of this one. I can close my eyes and image the words, which create images, which take me to places...I think your hit the mark with this one. :)

I definitely like the effect of "all that is me", "all that is you", and "all that is love". I sense sincerity sacredness. This made me smile. :)

Classic in form, this could be a piece from the 18th century as well as today. It has that touch of eloquence typical and ageless. I enjoyed it very much.

I love how you end each stanza with those lines, they really underline the emotion of this piece. Another seamless collaboration between you both. Nicely done :)
