Love

Love is a song that is sung by a duet of two hearts
It cannot be heard by anyone except the singers themselves
The lyrics are in the actions
The blending is in the feeling between the two

The beat is given by the love pulse that connects the two
The conductor is the eyes
and words are the accompaniment
The tune is maintained by mutual respect

The resonance is in commitment
The sustainment is in understanding
The pitch is faithfulness
And the audience is the lovers themselves

Love is a story that cannot be told
the book of which cannot be read by anyone
One needs special eyes to read the book
Those are the eyes of love

You cannot hear the love story
Unless you have the ears of love
You may not understand love
Unless you have the brain of love

Love can only be tasted by those with love taste buds
Love can only be felt by loving hearts
Love cannot be stolen or disposed of
Love can be fragile, Handle with care!

The Love Lightning

It was the loneliest day of my life
Wandering the streets of my lonely town
Not really sure of what I was looking for
But I knew I had something to look for

The cloud from the horizon emerged
So beautiful and so silver
Quickly covered the whole town
Nothing else was visible except the shining beauty

I could hear the rumble of thunder
Sounded much like love panic
I felt the drops of rain on my forehead
Was it rain drops or sweat?

I stood still and dumb
Stricken by the love lightning
My tongue so electrocuted
So much that I couldn’t utter a word

It happened so soon, so fast
There was no eye witness except my eyes
Could anyone bring Rescue? No!
Rescue had come by herself

The Angel in the love cloud
You are my Rescue, You are my love
You are my present, you are my future
You are my everything, You are my world.
