Two hearts attached
in a sexual flash
May well detach
in a feverish dash
A steady, rhythmic heartbeat
patience its answer
For the outcome is sweet
and safer the transfer
Two hearts awaken to a single song,
A quiet promise they have known all along.
No borrowed dream, no passing fire—
Only the gentle rise of shared desire.
They move as rivers meeting at the sea,
Each finding more in what the other sees.
Not copies, but reflections softly cast,
Two souls embracing future, present, past.
Their love unfolds like blossoms after rain,
Growing stronger through both joy and pain.
Within its shade, no fear can take its place;
Only truth, and tenderness, and grace.
When silence falls, their eyes still speak,
A language only faithful hearts can keep.
Hand in hand, through every changing season,
They find in one another every reason.
So let the stars bear witness from above:
The strongest hearts are shaped by quiet love.
Two kindred spirits, timeless and free,
Writing forever what love was meant to be
two hearts divided
unable to reconcile
love is a lost cause
The door slammed shut between us,
words we hurled still echo,
your empty chair haunts dinner,
I replay that night alone,
pride kept both our voices silent.
I remember your hands teaching mine
how to tie my shoelace,
you carried me on tired shoulders,
now I carry this silence,
missing the man who raised me.
Sundays once meant your laughter,
now they mean an empty phone,
I dial your number then hesitate,
sorry feels too small now,
but I am ready finally.
Come back Dad, I am waiting,
let us rebuild what we broke,
your son still needs his father,
two hearts too stubborn to bend,
let's be one family again.
Two hearts blend as one,
Soft as morning's gentle light,
Bound forevermore.
I never thought, in a million years that someone like "YOU" could exist...
Even in my wildest dreams, I never thought a dream could ever come true... But here U are...
My one...
My only...
For U, I now exist...
I can be... just...
"ME"...
My imperfections... My stubbornness...
N' all the many things that make me "NOT" so perfect...
Knowing I actually "AM" good enough to be...
To be loved by one, who see's me...
Who thinks I am worth it...
Who make "ME" see I can be more...
The best me I can truly be...
Two hearts held by infinity
??????
The spark of distant stars jump-starts
the rhythmic beating of our two hearts.
two hearts throwing
caution to the wind

AP: Honorable Mention 2025
Two roads diverse in the woods,
Whose road walk less untrodden.
Meet in sunrise where no one see,
The full bloom of summer roses.
Witness the peaceful encounter
Of two hearts falls in secret glib.
How beautiful is the morning dew,
Put in space of leaves and petals,
Brush every wind that passes by.
What a refreshing feeling that be
When two hearts meet embrace.
A cold solitude morning glory ray,
When all is well mend in free way,
Complete life a destiny ever see.
We walk the same road every day
You walking one way and I another
We need rarely to ever speak when we pass
because we can read each other’s looks
What is never said speaks the loudest
We know what is there, and what is not
You poke at me and I play along
I get silent and make you wonder if I am mad
We play this wicked game but laugh under our breaths
But we do complement each other like the butterfly and flower
I have written these feelings down many times,
though, many times have I had to rewrite them.
I need not brag to any friends but keep quiet
about things that two hearts left unread.
A Journey of Two Hearts
Kisses as sweet as the nectar of spring,
Your lips, a melody, soft whispers sing.
Each touch a voyage to realms uncharted,
Where discoveries bloom, bold and openhearted.
New challenges rise like waves on the shore,
We face them together, to grow and explore.
Your warm heart, a beacon, steadfast and true,
Guiding us both through skies gray and blue.
A bond built on trust, honesty's light,
Desires like embers that glow in the night.
Passion ignites in the depth of your gaze,
A fire that burns through life’s winding maze.
Tenderness lingers in every embrace,
A haven of love, no fear can displace.
This journey, this dance, is ours to pursue,
A tapestry woven of me and of you.
Harsh words
A bated breath
A pregnant silence was how we left
Scorned feelings
Once love; amiss
You couldn’t keep me
Not even with a kiss
Two hearts
One
It split in two
Two hearts, broken loves, sade's story, and fates
Created by mental science, oh foggy people!
Love is a pure feeling, that comes from the origin
From our creator’s heart, cristal clean radiation
Foggy science controlled the love of these hearts
Love failed, never was realized, death on, lives off
‘Thank you foggy creatures my suffering in life!’
Says the victim of the foggy science—the pain of life.
You give your sad heart
I give you my lonely one
then comes the healing...
love melts all the scars away...
together we are complete
I saw you leave, my heart left too
It left my chest and went with you
And there I was left on my own
My thinking spot now all alone
Keep my heart, take care of it
Make it something when you knit
A cover for it, it will fit
Just use your heart as the template
Let it out once in a while
Let it see your awesome smile
Think of me, I'll think of you
I always will, that's nothing new
Until the day we say, we do
Hold it close, keep it in view
And how I want that day to come
When both our hearts will beat as one
