Spiderweb of Lights

In a dream, I think I saw you,

in a spiderweb of lights across the sky -

and as I

swept the pieces of my broken spirit,

I could hear your lullaby:

“I saw your eyes, I saw your eyes…”

{your voice would faintly say};

and that was how before I even met you

(face to face)

I knew that you existed in some way.

*

Through Wi-Fi seams, I crossed you,

in a spiderweb of swipes that I came by -

and there was

just something about you

that made me want to hit “reply”.

“I saw your eyes, I saw your eyes…”

{I’d listen to your texts and DMs say};

and that was how before I even met you

(face to face)

you made my heartstrings somehow play.

*

Through the screen, I grew to know you,

in a spiderweb of pixelated brights -

as I learned

your smile and your laughter -

all your thoughts and your insights.

“I love your eyes, I love your eyes…”

{I’d listen keenly as you’d say};

and that was how before I even met you

(face to face)

you made my soul beams somehow sway.

*

Through a sea of lives, I sought you,

in a spiderweb of faces in the night -

as I checked

my cell phone for your picture,

squinting in the flashing disco lights.

“I know those eyes, I know those eyes…”

{I heard your voice so softly (from behind me) say};

and that was how before I even saw you

(face to face)

you picked me up and swept me far away.

*

In a lustful gleam, I hugged you,

in a spider web of nerves that’d gone awry -

as my heartbeats

echoed through my body’s chambers -

my core a-swarm with butterflies.

“Look in my eyes, look in my eyes…”

{you leaned into me (closely) just to say},

and that was how the very moment that I saw you

(face to face)

I knew you were the one with whom I’d want to stay.

*

Like a scene, I told you -

in a spiderweb of tangled words I’d rather write -

that your timing

seemed subliminal,

for I think I’d called you with my mind.

“I dreamed of you, I dreamed of you…”

{you whispered as you wrapped your arms around my waist},

and that was how the very moment that I told you

(face to face)

I knew our souls were bound in destined ways.

*

In the theme of love, I kissed you,

in a spiderweb of elevated vibes -

as our skin

and essence came together,

and our earthly elements combined.

“I think I saw you in the skies…”

{I whispered in the calm of your embrace},

and that was how the very moment that I kissed you

I knew our souls had found each other in the maze.

*

In a dream, I think I saw you,

in a spiderweb of lights across the sky -

as I

stared into the darkness,

remembering the promise of July.

Some things in life are magic,

and to intuition, I’m not blind:

I’ve walked down paths I’ve felt were safe in life,

and also those I knew to be more risky be design.

In the end,

two hearts of weightless helium,

floating randomly through time,

came upon a tiny keyhole in the medium -

(and that’s when)

your star and mine aligned. ✨🕸
