RIC S. BASTASA - INTERCONNECTED

How can i be so in love with you?
the mind asks

the heart smiles in silence
for humbly it knows the answer

for one who knows the passion
also knows the corresponding pain

and pain does not speak that well
attuned to its loneliness of having

to suffer alone in that place where
silence is the only cure.
