Let me hear it Once more-- The tunes bring me The strangest inspiration. Allow me to sit Under that spell again-- My heart can't get enough. In passing, we smile; In conversation, we thrive. It's just not enough! I want to know more Of what you live for. I need to determine The essence of your heartbeats. Tell me, Baby, What is most important To you? What do you think of To get you through When the mornings Disguise themselves As the night? My heart beats For these answers; I breathe each breath To figure it out. Tell me, Baby, Where does your heart lie? Of all sad words of tongue or pen, the saddest are these: 'it might have been.' -John Greenleaf Whittier |

Snowpants, The sound of your heartbeat is a reflection of the answer you want to hear. Do not push too hard for an answer though, it is best to let time take its course. Enjoyed reading this wonderful write. Respond to my call and let the waves of my heart fill your life with the wonders of love (Daniel J D) |
