Love Poem: The Call

The Call

In the tuneless world of mine
There I get a ring
Maybe just an ordinary ring
But from an extraordinary source.

The call from the one
It’s not just a call, it’s a moment
Similar to the first ray of sun
Entering through your window.

My once silent heart
Finds its rhythm again
In the sound of a voice
That knows how to reach me.

It isn’t the words
But the presence of someone
The breath of someone
On the other side of the call.

And suddenly,
I am reminded
That joy doesn’t knock loudly
Sometimes, it just calls.
