Tongue Tied*

I have searched all over
Beneath the deep covers of seasons and times
Books and even fairy tales
Just to find a trace
A trace of elements
Of chemical rudiments
That should explain this biochemistry
My heart; an antenna seeking a frequency
Its fast beating, a signal that you're within reach...my reach.

Aye! Do you even understand the psychology of you and I?
You could be a million miles
And yet
Your smiles
I hear
And yet
The distance between us is just six paces
And two window panes
And I'm yet to negotiate the planes
To say the first hello.

So they say
We are made in twos
Pair of opposites
Right and wrong
Me and you
And no matter how I fancy you
I'm sure we couldn't get around the first hello
'Cause in my dreams
We meet
Of course you are always fine
And I always get your attention long enough
Just to get tongue tied again.
