I Carry Your Heart Within Me

i carry your heart within me) do you
within mine as well) lockets of hair
your sweet breath that i smell and pulses i
feel make me flow.
my heart lets me know that it's you,
your heart as well i must know.
is it red hot,
when you think of me my heart races 
around to the beat that comes next before
your last) how do you do what you do, you play
to my heart you squeeze it more and it grows.
