Heartbeat

Your gentle words slide across my beating heart
racing with your fingertips
breaking these walls built steadfast between us
New meaning in the words you tell
I have never read these words in your dictionary
never held this clever truth
What is this secret you try to whisper
Where does this path lead us
There is strength in your hands
I hold you close
I keep you far
This laugh, this smile, this heartbeat
Familiar but different
I have neglected the moon for so long
keeping my eyes open
but your sweet lullaby
rocking me to sleep
holding my dreams
a note for my heart
keep beating
keep living
keep loving
