When Two Hearts Become One Poem by Mario, Lucien, Rene Odekerken

The moment we met,
there was a quiet shift in the air,
as though the world took a deep breath
and released it in perfect stillness.

At first, it was a thread, barely visible,
connecting your gaze to mine.
A soft and fragile thing.

But time and touch,
and the unspoken words we carried,
wove the thread into a cord.
Not binding, but holding.
Not caging, but anchoring.

Your heartbeat echoes in my chest now,
I cannot tell if it is mine or yours.
I do not care to know.
We are something more than two,
something indivisible.

Even in silence, we speak.
Even in stillness, we move.
Your breath begins my sentence
and my thoughts complete your dreams.

We are no longer a pair.
We are a single, boundless soul.
Forever entwined,
a love that time cannot unmake.
