Perfect Harmony

Single melody,
Tender sequence,
Dancing across the score.
Simple freedom,
Vacant passion,
Longing for something more.
Empty tune,
Unattached,
Left in the composer's hand.
Raw and real,
Now revealed,
Alone no longer stand.
Unresolved,
Now complete,
A perfect pair of notes.
Synchronized,
From bar to bar,
Seeming as if to float.
Perfect harmony,
Simultaneous,
The notes are now a song.
Once melody,
Now duet,
A past apart is gone.
