Breakdown of a Heartbeat

by Byrd - Virgo

Two hearts so close
beating to the same rythem.
My hand runs through your delicate hair.
Your hands,
so strong yet so soft
brush my sides.
I can feel your soul 
escaping from your 
nimble fingertips,
surrounding my body 
and taking me into 
a carefree world
erasing every thought in my mind
except...
the simplicity 
of a boy and a girl
    in love...
No worries, just love.
Make the moment last.
 
All this feeling within a 
timespan of a heartbeat.
Reality hits.
Crickets chirp.
Despite the abrubpt ending,
two hearts still beat so close...
