Heartsounds...

Is love just luck
and happenstance,
a mingling of chemicals
that we sense
but don't smell?
I think not...
I believe it is a knowing,
a realization that strikes,
as the Italians say,
like a thunderbolt
that fires the heart,
aflame with wondrous light
and an inner heat,
an eternal flame that never dies
that cries of longing,
of wanting to belong
completely and everlasting
Love, true love
is more than the physical,
it is an eternity in a smile,
a gaze into eyes
that hold no guile,
only caring and concern
and a willingness to do anything
to keep the fire burning,
to warm the days
 and light the nights...
