This heart beats, before you, during you, and after you... as does yours, our hearts beat no matter what happens, it speeds up, it slows down, it remains constant, it reminds us with each beat that we are wonderfully made to love and fear, and with every beat I'm reminded how I miss the feel of your heart even if I only felt it for a few moments, I long for your counter rhythm, and as I'm with you, know that the longer I'm with you, the closer together our hearts will beat, until they beat in union, they beat for one another, they know when something is wrong with the other one, so when you feel my heart and it seems too fast or too slow do not worry precious one, my heart is merely trying to learn yours for better or worse, and it will keep trying until something forces it to stop.
