Heartbeat

You hear her heartbeat

Before she hears your heart
Before she knows you exist

Before she hears your voice
Before she knows your name

Before she sees your face
Before she feels your embrace

Wherever you go
Whatever you do

When you're awake
When you're asleep

Every breath you take
Every beat of your heart

Even when she's gone
When a part of you is gone

From her womb to your tomb

You hear her heartbeat
