My Heart Keeps Beating

My Heart Keeps Beating



My heart keeps beating.

I keep breathing.

I don’t know why you

make it beat faster and

make me breathe harder.

All I know is when I see you

my frown turns upside down,

my legs begin to shake and

stomach starts to quake.



When you’re not here

my heart slows down,

I can hardly breathe

knowing you’re not with me,

my smile turns back down to

a sad frown, and my legs collapse.

There I lay crying in

a puddle of tears.

So I need you here so

my heart keeps beating

faster and faster.
