Something About Connecting

Folder: 
2013

There’s something about connecting,

no matter how it’s done,

that pulls at every heartstring.

 

At first you find your nerves affecting

and your confidence is down to none,

but there’s something about connecting.

 

There are moments spent detecting

a new friendship has begun

that pulls at every heartstring

 

and you find yourself accepting

that you’re not the only one.

There’s something about connecting.

 

WIth so many interests intersecting

you decide you’re in for the long run -

that pulls at every heartstring.

 

So all of your life you spend protecting

the bonds that you share with each loved one.

There’s something about connecting

that pulls at every heartstring.
