“Someone once told me it’s a bad thing
to start suddenly speaking in tongues,
but he knows that language better than anyone.

I don’t understand a word, but thank God he does.

Love is like the first cherry tree blossoming.
Love is like the two of us
taking turns biting the apple tree.
Love is like our screams singing out in the same key.”
