#67 of Poetry

This is one of two lost poems that I found. It's about soul-searching. We all yearn for that special someone in our lives. Enjoy.

_Pumping Blood_

Listen for the rhythm of my heart  
Feel each beat it makes  
See the red rivulets of blood  
Washing through my veins

Rushing through heated  
Boiled red and angry  
Sitting calm and white  
Protective of the soul  
Red flows together with blue  
Into little purple highways  
Allow all passage through  
Keeping my body alive

Four chambers separate  
The beating love I crave  
Love for beauty, safety, compassion,  
And of course, understanding  
For all the parts to come together  
Exists the very reason  
My heart pumps at all.
