a replica of
your heartbeat
through
the
sound of
a seashell

Nothing has ever been consistent in my life
Expect the thought of you within my mind
Days pass, seconds tic away with the clock
Yet you linger within the time that passes
Ever so present in every part of my being
Thriving in the depths of spirit, a soul in mine
I try so desperately to remove you from me
But your blood runs so deeply inside my own
The scent of your skin still haunts me today
And I imagine you're body intertwined with me
My dear I haven't forgotten a thing you've done
I've only pushed away the constant you were
The love that lives daily in my delicate heart
I wish you all the best, while I yearn for you
Dreaming of the day, a yellow diamond rests
Upon my small finger, like we once had desired

Block out the background noise and turn to the person in front of you. Put down the cell phone and turn it off. Stop the tweets and emojies put an end to the endless updates. Look at the person you are with and hear what they have to say. Do not talk and do not interrupt, for a single moment be silent and just listen. Hear what they actually have to say, see their emotions what ever they may be. Feel something for your friend or the stranger that is talking to you, just listen.
