Heartbeats

Heartbeats
Timeless journals
In rhythms, crisp clean pages
Flowing words, warm and welcoming
Soulmates

Soulmates
Silent echoes
Wistful memories, still
As the music plays adoring
True love

True love
Passion and praise
Listening, believing
As the years pass, with family
Heartfelt

Heartfelt
Hopes and prayers
Rising in relations
Reaching through shadows and pain, grace
Kindred

Kindred
Kindness and grace
Trusting in each other
We are meant to be together
Heartbeats
