#67 of Poetry

This is one of two lost poems that I found. It's about soul-searching. We all yearn for that special someone in our lives. Enjoy.

Pumping Blood

Listen for the rhythm of my heart

Feel each beat it makes

See the red rivulets of blood

Washing through my veins

Rushing through heated

Boiled red and angry

Sitting calm and white

Protective of the soul

Red flows together with blue

Into little purple highways

Allow all passage through

Keeping my body alive

Four chambers separate

The beating love I crave

Love for beauty, safety, compassion,

And of course, understanding

For all the parts to come together

Exists the very reason

My heart pumps at all.
