Freewrite on the word resonance by Brenna Judith Baker


If we were instruments, you and I would be two peaks on a sound wave born from the same string.
Since that night when we sat of the floor, knees cracking, laughs breathing, pencils scratching, I’ve known our hearts were synchronized to the same rhythm.
We are two hollow bodies in space singing together, matching one another pitch for pitch through every movement of the symphony:
A chorus of gestures filling the space, bending the silence, and twisting the air into reverberating rings of emotion.
I feel sunbursts and gravity when I think of you.
I see myself in you.
We resonate.
