Written: September 13, 2023 ______________________________________________________________ Two halves of a whole, we are, Inseparable, intertwined, Bound by the dance of life In a symphony of hearts combined. You're the rhythms that reverberate loudly My heart beats akin to a drum in my chest The exhibit of affection! Smile and look proudly  That ignites my compassion, never at rest. I am the breath that satiates the air Whispering promises of zeal and devotion, Every inhale is a savor of your presence, Exhaling gratitude for this appreciation. Together, we micturate exquisite melodies, Of pounding heartbeats and steady breaths. A utopian resonance between our parodies, A tune that whispers in the depths. It is painful, this dance we share, The ache of longing when you're not there, But it is halcyon, the way our bodies move, In utopian rhythm, in an unblemished groove. It is madness, this love we embrace, The fire that consumes us, leaves no trace. But then that is life, it is our world, A whirl of emotions, where passion unfurls. Each heartbeat, each breath, a testament, To the power of love, its eternal descent, We are incomplete without each other, Bound by a love that cannot smother.

What a romantic poem, full of imagery and delicate expressions of true love. True, love is sometimes madness as it unfurls and ages. I like your style and poetic voice (and your vocabulary :-) ) Sara

I am the breath that satiates the air" Woww what an intriguing line that is! Dear Sotto, you truly are an incredible poet and I'm always blown by the imageries that you so delicately and fascinatingly carve in your delightful writes. Although, this poem reflects myriad shades of love, how everything is perfect when two souls are so perfect together and then darkness exudes in their separation, with them longing for their union. Love is such a powerful emotion and you've described it so well!

This love between the two is so consuming and perfect that one has no existence apart from the other. Their hearts beat in unison and their limbs move in ethereal symphony. "Each heartbeat, each breath, a testament, To the power of love, its eternal descent," So powerfully and beautifully expounded in perfect rhythm matching the rhythm of their heart.

Bound by a love that cannot smother, lucky are the ones in an eternal dance that sways to the beating hearts of soulmates or beloved. Absolutely love the flow and depth of this poem and the way this flows with such passionate lines. Your rhymes as always are so captivating. And i love how you’ve used words like halcyon eutopian, so good and celestial . And how you’ve depicted the longing and ache in their absence is beyond soulful. So touching and heartfelt. Truly a magnificent romantic write.
