I want to be held in your arms, <br />Laying my head on your chest. <br />I wanna listen. <br /> <br />Your steady breathing, <br />Your chest going up and down slowly. <br />Your heart beating in rhythm <br /> <br />Beat after beat, <br />I steep lower. <br />Finally getting rest. <br />I'm falling asleep. <br /> <br />Finally somewhere to belong, <br />Right by your heartbeat. <br />Finally, I'm where I'm supposed to be. <br /> <br /> <br />Your steady heartbeat, <br />Oh, how I love it! <br />I've waited, oh, so long. <br /> <br />And this is only my waking dream, <br />Because your not close enough for me <br />To hear your heartbeat.<br /><br />Melanie Weeks<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/heartbeat-25/
