The Whispering Night

Whispers
themselves seemed
to enjoy last night

Gentle and soothing—
they brushed the ears
like soft feathers

Drifting through
the hearts—
our beats breathed
in musical sync

Undercover—
we were
the prisoners
devising our
sweet escape

To our own world—
reminiscing
childhood memories—
revisiting together
rediscovering us
as we slowly nodded off
