Heartbeat

Heartbeat

My beloved,
It has been a long time since I've last seen you,
But in my mind it seems as if we were parted only yesterday.
Like rose petals drifting down upon the water,
So your memories touch me,
And just like the ripples of the rose petals, 
Your memories extend out and touch every aspect of my life.
There is no way that I can ever escape this hold you have upon me,
There is no way that I can ever forget the hold you have upon my heart.
You are my heart;
And the ripples you have made in my life have become my heartbeat.
