My pounding heart.

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.
