My pounding heart.

55 word essay

Walking slowly on a path,

With wind gently brushing on our faces,

My heart beat against chest wall out of tempo.

I made up my mind,

My dry lips opened wide,

And muttered a few words.

Her nodding head was ritardando to my heart rhythm and breath.

Taking her hands, my heart started beating

Lively.
