there´s a little heart beating
no head
no legs
no arms
beating in silence
no night
no moon
no stars
there´s a little heart beating
no sky
no sea
no ground
beating in silence
no view
no sight
no sound
there´s a little heart beating
it beats somewhere warm
not seen by any
the beating barely heard
it beats for survival
it beats to see the light
it beats through the day and
throughout the night
there’s a little heart beating
that no one can see
there’s a little heart beating
and now we are three…
