::Your Heart::

The beating of your heart
Lets me know you are alive
So simple and steady,
My love is no surprise

 

 

The endless rhythm,
So soft and sweet
The thrumming of drums
So in tune to the beat

 

 

Your life is beautiful
Beloved, and blessed.
Because I know you,
I have known the best.

 

 

The day will never come,
That my love subsides,
Because your beating heart
Is my reason to survive.

I like that the poem is centered around one theme, but describes a whole story.

Aww this is soooo sweet. Especially this verse:
"The day will never come,
That my love subsides,
Because your beating heart
Is my reason to survive."

I love this. Very well written, nicely done!
