There Goes My Heart
Pitter patter
goes my heart
every time I see you.
Take what belongs
to you - the heart
moving with
every breath
and word spoken
So eloquently.
All I yearned for
was simplicity
and easiness.
The heart never
loses its shape
nor its color
as it never stops
its birdlike or drum
like consistency.
It never stops its
path to freedom.

There is a delicacy to your crafting, which exudes emotion both powerful and subtle. It has a sense of bittersweet vulnerability that is very engaging. 💖🔥🙏
