Two strange hearts, they are,
Have just met in the busy street of love
With so much love noises around them
Yet they could hear themselves
Beating audibly in unison
Like two lost pieces connected together again,
Perfectly fitted.


But they have to fight hard
Against lips and tongue,
The interrupters and destroyers of love
Because from them come thousand questions
Of another heart’s existence;
‘How old are you, heart?’
‘What’s your annual earning?’
‘Where are you from?’
And the questions go on forever.

The hearts come pleading to the lips and tongue
‘Sometime, for love’s sake,
Be silent, oh lips and tongue! And leave us alone!
Let us beat heartily at our present found moment
Of love and happiness;
The body needs the most.
