My Heart Beats Slowly

Folder: 
Tim (old poems)

Ever since you said goodbye
My heart beats slowly, keeping time.

All my soul does long for you,
Sings songs for you,
Belongs with you.
It always longs for you

Without you nothing is the same,
My heart leaps just hearing your name,
My feelings for you will never change.
You're almost mine but not, making me insane.
Without you nothing is the same

Ever since you said goodbye,
My heart beats slowly, keeping time.

Your eyes are the most beautiful of blue,
I get lost every time I look at you.
I have not been sure of what to do,
Since I have been without you.

You steal my heart and suddenly,
I fall for you too easily,
Perhaps I know it will end in misery,
But I still want you to feel the same for me
You steal my heart from me.

Once I wrote you a love song,
You loved it, said that we belong,
I was clinging to your every word,
Not a clue that soon I'd end up hurt.

Ever since you said goodbye,
My heart beats slowly, keeping time.

Keeping time for what?
Perhaps the day,
You will look into my eyes and say,
It's me you want, somehow, someway,
I will have you back like you said that day
The day you left me to sit at bay,
Then chose her instead, I felt so fray.
Maybe my heart waits for that day.

Ever since you said goodbye,
My heart beats slowly, keeping time.
I just want you to once more be mine,
Til then my heart beats slowly, keeping time.
