A HEARTBEAT



 Listen to my heartbeat, thump, thump, 
 It beats,


 Blood runs through it, listen to me as I 
 Breathe.


 A heartbeat means life, It beats fast or 
 Slow,


 Thump, thump, it goes, a heartbeat that 
 Slowly grows old.


 It speaks of who I am, only one of a kind,



 Listen, thump, thump, with a hand to my chest 
 Feel as I am alive.


 A heartbeat lets us know that this moment is 
 Still ours,


 Hear it pound, listen to its beautiful sound.



 Thump, thump, thump, thump, one beat at a time,



 A heartbeat so precious, thump as it beats one 
 More time.
