A Heart's Song

There once was a young and fragile heart
It sung such a pretty tune
It's beat alone was wondrous art
For it sung only for you

Your touch alone would warm it up
Your voice was the instrument to its song
Your loving stare made emotions build up
With you it felt nothing wrong

You were there when it pounded in fear
You were there to calm it down
It ran for miles whenever you're near
The sound of yours wiped off its frown

These two hearts, once beat together
Two hearts once beat as one
One wouldn't be without the other
Their love was brighter than any sun

But this duet faded out in time
Into a soft, sad melody
Heartbeats no longer chimed
Replaced with whispers of melancholy

The young heart beat louder
Trying to call to you again
But you started to beat for another
And the heart was left alone in pain

Everyday it continued beating
Hoping you'd hear its song
It sung with every moment fleeting
Waiting for you to sing along

It kept going, everyday
Its only purpose being you
With every beat, it hurt to stay
But for you, it always tried to

Even in this heart's moments final
When it took all for just one beat
It spent each one waiting your arrival
It waited weakly at your feet

And when it felt its days were through
It sang one last melody
Giving one last beat, sent out for you
Hoping its duet will finally be complete
