Heartbeat

December 23, 2015 Cody S. Decker Poetry 0

Our hearts beat
Like they should
To keep us going
And keep us waking up
Each day
To do what we think
We need to do
To keep going
So we can get by and buy

The things we need
To show them all
That we’re making it
And we’re ok
But our hearts do more
Than beat
When thinking doesn’t cut it
And our minds are spent
They pull us
Towards what we know
We’re meant to do
Without a second thought
Even if it makes us seem
Like we’re not ok
To the ones
Who have yet to see
That our hearts do more
Than beat
