Heartbeat

My heart beats
My heart is not a song
My heart beats
My heart is not violent
My heart beats
It beats impartially
My heart beats

I did not choose a beating heart
I did not choose to flow my blood
My blood is red
I didn’t make it red
Air goes in me as one gas and goes out of me as a different one
I am alive
I did not choose to be alive
My heart beats

I see with my soul
I feel with my soul
I use my spirit
To hug legions of people
All over the planet
All at once

There are no limits
To what we can accomplish
When we work together
As a single body

The Earth is our home
We can redecorate
But first
There’s this huge mess

I am a huge mess
I am a reflection

My heart is beating
My blood is red
I am alive
I am not dead
