Your Heartbeat Slow
Listen to your heartbeat slow,
Listen to its ho-hum beats,
Slowly as the pain retreats,
Listen to its thrumming low;
Wake up to the pain within,
Wake up to its panic call,
Gently as the ache does crawl,
Wake up to darkness therein;
Look out for your frail heart's cry
Look out for the symptoms, yes,
Well before the pain rises,
Look out for med help that's nigh.
