Hearts Beating

Hearts Beating


Hearts beating,
slow, familiar,
keeping time.

Then, a touch, a breath,
hearts quicken,
still as one.

Passions flare,
not hurried,
soft and slow,
Heat.

Limbs and flesh
entwined,
seeking, finding,
Love.

Hearts beating,
rapid, strong,
as one.

Hot breath,
deep embrace,
sweet release.

The years increase,
but the bodies still recall,
and respond,
to each other.

No words,
only hearts,
beating.
