Darling!
Since you started to be in isolation
Our life has gained some consolation.
We have learnt to love from at least two metres away,
Look at opposite directions
But maintain the serenity of love
Under the authority guidelines.
Masked ourselves,
We have spoken millions of words
Without speaking a single word
Flown countless kisses without our lips locked, without our eyes closed
But enlivened our love.
From the two metre distance
We have learnt to measure our life
And prove that the Salter machine that lies in one corner of our room
Was always wrong to read the true weight of life.
Those living thousands of miles,
And those living attached
Both have lost their loved ones,
Those that are in prosperity
And those in poverty
Both have lost their loved ones
And are suffering in agony.
Fortunate we should feel at this juncture,
From two metres apart
We have maintained
The dignity of our love
The holiness of our souls
Learnt the vanity of pride
And meaningfully enlivened the purity of life.
