Tug

I can feel you, tugging at my heartstrings
As if to scream "I'm here. Can you feel me?"
And if I lay still and quiet I can feel my heart beating
The soft thud accompanied by another...
And I can feel you in my heart, your heart beating,
My lullaby breaking the silence of my fear
Wondering if I will always feel so lonely...
But no, there you are pulling me harder...
Screaming through that pipe into my heart
"I'm still here. I will never be gone."
But you are.
