You Finally Have a Name

A smile
dances
Across cheeks

When mentioned
Your name

Tempature rises
Hands shake
and

Stomach flutters

Pale complexion
Becomes a rosy red

Heart misses beat
and
Threatens
To leave chest

Anticipation rises
With
Euphoria not far
Behind

For the longest time
I spent
soundless

Years past

Day by day
Hour by hour
Without even a wisper

Enter you

With such
loudness

Only to be found
In the very
sirens themselves

Screaming
unforgettable hymns

Echoing
through
Ear drums

Long thought dead

Your notes hit at
levels
never experienced
Before

Causing the ends of lips
To curve
And spread far

Accompanied
with the
Child like sense
Of wonder

Drip inner lobes
Till they soak
Stems of the brain

Neurons firing
Uncontrollably
This way and that

Bringing blood back into
A heart
I thought no longer beat

So with

Shoulders
unburdened
Of weight

Chest
relieved
Of force

Time has finally
Blessed me with
The sense of sound

And the one thing
That unlocked it all

Was the key

Found in when
She finally spoke
Her name....
