I hear your heart in the darkness

Rhythmic rumbles within shadows

It has begun to cause distress

Beating like the wings of sparrows

I reach towards that precious music

Outstretched fingers in the ether

I find the thorns of a cynic

Brambles protecting rip and tare

I press through the exquisite pain

To find that rhythmic beating heart

Of my muse driving me insane.
