Echoes Of A Heart Beat

Author: Kristi

In the still of the night
When all sound is asleep,
I hear a faint echo
When I listen deep.

I hear not one beat
But an echo of two,
One beating for me
And the other for you.

Mine beats out a rhythm
That says "I love you",
The other beat matches
As my heart beats for two.

The echo flows soft
Like footprints in sand,
It beats out a message
Only our hearts understand.

The message is simple
As it calls out to you,
"I will love you forever....
Our whole lives thru..."

With every beat
I hear you inside,
With a voice that's strong
And can't be denied.

With every beat of my heart
I hear a faint sound,
An echo of a heart beat
With love all around.

I am never alone
When I feel my heart beat,
For your heart is in mine
And I am complete.

Two hearts that beat
Forever as one,
An echo in time
As two hearts become one.
