Heartbeat
February 7, 2013
I followed my heart through the lonely dark
Whispering trees showing me the one way
On this weary journey did I embarq
Searching and praying for the light of day
You were at the end of the copse so vast
Your sleek black hair like night holding the stars
The scars on your face told secrets of past
I could feel your unknown pain from afar
The raw fear in my heart made my bones shake
I knew I should turn from this woeful place
But leaves were moving and the light did quake
Things were changing as a breeze touched your face
Then sun shone down from your head to your feet
The truth was you were why my heart did beat
