our hearts
are mathematical functions
from negative to positive infinity
traveling in opposite directions
asymptotic to a single line between them
such that their rays of love
would never intersect,
save the instance
when this mutual passion
ceases to be a function of emotion
expanding exponentially towards
a mutual origin
no longer bound by restrictions
two loves become an identity
not deriving from one another
at any point in time
ERROR 101: SYSTEM OVERLOAD.

Math terms =)
The title, when graphed in polar mode on a graphing calculator, forms a heart.
