My heart beats to live
As anyone else does perceive
But its rhythm becomes sublime
When another fits its tune in time.
When I meet you today
Queer feeling strikes my way
As though I am being enchanted
By ardent love that kept me haunted.
And when both our eyes convene
A spark of magic brought us serene
That seems holding the breath within
Grasping the our hearts with love between.
And we dine together to celebrate
Our meeting quite swift but deliberate
For there’s nothing else that can suppress
When two hearts in one love gives caress.

I would like to translate this poem
What would we poets have to write about if the subject of love were banned, eh? This is beautiful, Marvin. Your rhyming couplets flow like the river of your togetherness - two hearts beating as one. Love, Allie ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥
