Serenaded whispers meant for just us two
Words for a lifetime
Others have no clue
Sheltered from the noise
Of the mindless
We carry on, blindly
Leaving the world behind us

In hushed tones we stroll throughout the place
Conversation stifled in echoing space
Laughing while onlookers
Stare into our faces
We carry on, kindly
Trying not to make a fuss

It’s not that we don’t care about what’s happening in the world
Just keep the spotlight focused somewhere else
There are more important things that have unfurled
To be concerned about
That will make us shout
Have us climb up to the pulpit
To be heard
