love lost in translation
Do you think it matters for lovers to speak one and the same language?
People say that the language of love is universal.
Maybe.
But then...
How do you understand the words that I can say best in my mother tongue?
How would you read the poetry that I could write to you?
How could I understand the songs that you grew up with?
Words, are again, irrelevant.

There was time, I thought the language is of no importance... However, now I guess it matters. There are words that sounds best in our mother language.... Especially these two, I have in mind.
I do believe that language matters. If you really want to understand someone, you should make the effort and learn their language, I think.
