Unfamiliar Heart

Original Submission by Jeline Loh Jen-Li

Unfamiliar Heart

In this infinite, divine revelation,

Lives a love as wild as an endless flame.

Framing its way through our soul’s evolution,

I never knew love could make one so tame!

Like a dove eyes fixed on a single view,

Or a puppy whining for just a touch.

One can deceive with a smile, but who knew?

One peek into the heart could reveal so much!
