The Beating
by Steven Craig
Concentrate
Feel that moment
between each heartbeat
Feel it
Every one feels the beating
I can beat you
But I can never make you feel the moment
That moment between your heart beats
Only you can do that
and know what it means
When you realize the answer
you will know where you are
and why you came there
And you might be starting to think that you missed him
You know,
there is never room in the past
to crawl back to
You have that moment right now
and a handful of tomorrows
Those moments between the beats
Go cry
Cry as intensely as you have
Make the tears overwhelm each previous bud
Cry so hard that breath is nearly impossible
Each gasp is a throbbing gulp to live.
Cry
and have it done
and finished
While your last tear is still wet
Take back your life
Rise from the soil
Gripping all you are
Surrender it not again
Life is between the heartbeats

Author's Note: Not the beating you thought it was about, is it....
