. . . . . . . did you know that i sit next to you now in the tiniest house of time?

what are you?

what is a heart, i ask

is it you? do you hear me?

flowing blood
protecting love
building walls
melting eyes

always beating . . . beating . . .

you carry lifetimes

of veins

of cells

and secrets of who we are

    A heart
    is a thing
    with a mind
    of its own. :)
