Enlightened Hearts
05 August 2006

When two hearts meet across a universe
when those hearts beat in a rhythm as one
Words only words, those of a poet to seek
those words, whispering of love
this love and the desire to seek

When two hearts climb
that ladder of love
And both meet on the wing
those words of love
both hearts do sing

For could it be love
an effect stolen over time
When clocks bare another name
this was love, or just a word in rhyme

When two hearts, unite to pray
and their words are in unison borne
Would this be true to endure
an enlightenment to understand
of two hearts, across a universe pure
