A Heartbeat Under The Stars
In the soft light of the stars
 We lay on the sand
 His hand soft in mine
 Our eyes bright with joy,
 Close and warm.
 As we lay there,
 In the quiet peace,
 I heard his heartbeat against my ear.
 Thump, thump,
 Thump, thump
 So strong and bold in the silence.
 A heart, alone in the dark,
 Pumping life to his soul.
 As I heard his heart in the night,
 As I felt his presence so close to me,
 As I felt that never ending love burning in my own heart,
 For the first time, everything was well.
 And for the first time, I did not want change.
 Because that heartbeat was my happiness.
