Someone in the Meadow
On the ground of a prestigious university
I stand still out of timidity
Students and parents finding sections and lines
Sister guides me to find mine
As the line is found
My sister leaves
Seeing an old friend
I start to breathe calmly
Entering the seemingly cramped room with fifty chairs
A space in between two and one
Speaks as it invites to take a seat
As I immediately accepted
Conversations took place
I made several
Months go on
And I lose one of them
What was a casual connection
Turned into a formal one
And we go back to being strangers
Yet classmates for the remaining months
And what was thought to be a new start of a relationship
Turned sour as it rots
Toxic seeds engulf the fruit
Until it was time to discard
Another school year comes
Excitement or nervousness was neither felt
It was some sort of deja vu
Even though nothing happened yet
Until a couple of months pass
The same thing happened
Although the ending
Was sort of happy
Third year comes
And another deja vu
Although
That was merely my thought
In the middle of this time
I met someone
And they were the most beautiful I have encountered
Literal butterflies even floated around
Their melodies invited cacophony to a meadow
Where flowers danced with the wind
Bees and birds waltzed around
As we enjoy the majestic performance
A calm breeze echoed
As we conversed in the moment
Soft voices enveloped the silence
As the scenery forever became the haven
The go-to place
The calm after the storm
Peace after chaos
Harmony after discord
Unfortunately
There was only one way to consistently connect
A way of uniting words
The matchstick that forever lit up the candle
I had no memory of my first
But the day I finished that
The string strengthened
As it marked the beginning of a new life
Changing to a completely different perspective
The world was clearer and more understandable
Hands felt stronger
My voice got louder without speaking
Colors were brighter
Warmth was the good kind
Coldness balanced the previous
Life... was better
Amidst my discovery
My someone had a hectic schedule
Travelling on a journey to help those like me
As they connect them to each one
Their melodies made a whole country
Such a fun and hilarious sight
Constantly spoiling us
As we kept reciprocating the act
They never stayed in one place
They couldn't anyways
Though thinking better
They were definitely beside me the whole time
On my phone
In my head
Written on notebooks
Printed on paper
On days my thoughts and emotions do not unite
They guide my hands
And let go once the two combine
And a piece of art is formed
The someone...s
Are doing better and better
Although I can never really meet them
We are forever connected
For as long as words and life coincide
