Infatuation Love Poem ~ Where, When and How?
by Paul Curtis

where did it go?
the sense of one
feeling of togetherness
of mutuality, symbiosis
thinking each others thoughts
a consciousness shared
breathing in unison
a single beating heart
speaking in a single voice

when did it happen?
at what point?
did we separate?
torn asunder
split like an atom
dissected like conjoined twins
to breath alone
stop sharing one heart
speak for ourselves

how could it be?
when i looked at her with love
a stranger looked back
independent and solo
individual and free
thinking on a different plain
breathing different air
heart pulsing with a different beat
speaking a foreign tongue.
