Heartbeat

The world grows quiet when you wrap your arms around me.

Suddenly I’m aware of everything, but carefree of everything.

These moments are treasures, and I close my eyes to imagine a world where the embrace does not end.

Your arms around me, mine around you. Gentle pressure followed by a tight embrace.

You press your cheek to my chest and suddenly time slows down.

Can you hear my heart racing? I don’t imagine you wouldn’t be able to as I can feel it in every inch of my body.

Do you hear what I feel? Do you hear the words that are never spoken?
