Your heart

Your heart was beating somewhere above my belly.

I looked up to that tiny part of the sky above us.

Your heart was beating somewhere above my belly.

It was dark, that tiny part of the sky above us.

Your heart was beating somewhere above my belly.

It seemed unreal that under that tiny part of the sky it was us together.

Your heart was beating somewhere above my belly.

Yet, we were breathing together, below tiny part of the sky, us, together.

Your heart was beating somewhere above my belly.

Why did your heartbeat somewhere above my belly stop for a moment?

Your heart was beating on, somewhere above my belly.
