Heartbeat




Heartbeat



 Hollow chambers hammer—
rhythmic-flexing muscle
pushes fast my life force
through arteries and veins.
Ventricles and atria,
auricles and valves—
pulsing with the essence
of all my mind and soul.
Through vessels pounds the pressure—
blood races with emotions
felt far more keenly
than the perpetual beating,
keeping me breathing,
vital to my being,
ever needing your love.
