You watched from behind

As I swayed to the music

The first night we met

No network coverage

To cover and color time

The first night we met

No calls to remind

Us that we’re not wild and free

The first night we met

You called me “beauty”

While I saw beauty in you

The first night we met

Nineteen-twenties jazz

Silent phones, no texts, and you

You’re not my soulmate 
You’re not going to save me
But just take my hand.

You’re not my soulmate 
Show me your imperfections 
And I’ll show you mine.

You’re not my soulmate 
My soul longs to grow with yours
Different, side by side.

You’re not my soulmate 
But carry me into bed
Set me down softly.

You’re not my soulmate 
But gaze deep into my eyes 
Swim into the light.

You...
