the heart beats. in prose

the heart beats.
and the heart beats.
and the heart beats.
and the tears flutter.
and the jugular vein whispers.
and the soul is alive.

the heart beats.
and the enveloping verses.
and my very being embraces.
a love i cannot see.
a forgiveness i could feel.
oh the soul was in hunger.
and the soul is alive.

the heart beats.
and the heart beats.
and the heart beats.
of every second a gift.
come back my dear.
do not stray.
come back to love.
come back to forgiveness.

the heart beats.
