In a HeartBeat

A thousand warm sunrises,

And a million moonlit nights.

A few pleasant surprises

And a few betraying lies.

A sonnet and a song that makes you smile,

And a book of secrets that you could read for a while.

A dream that we'd seen together,

and a nightmare that we'd buried in those dark moments forever...

A childhood memory and a teenage crush,

A little teddy bear and a photograph that made you blush...

A magic trick and a finger-licking dish recipe,
A pack of cards and an old apron that was once burnt by me ...

a few guilt feelings, a few prayers,

and a lifetime of love ....

All that and everything you pack away ..... As you set out out on a new journey called Life

You walk away with a bag full of these .... I treasure the shadows ..... in a heartbeat
