STILL BEATING
By Sam Tumblin
My heart still beats,
Though time has taken its receipts.
A slow and steady pitter-patter,
Chasing dreams that scarcely matter.
Aimlessly I wander on,
Singing life’s unending song.
Beyond the lines of right and wrong,
Unplugged, yet somehow still strong.
My heart still beats,
Defying shadows, dodging defeat.
Past the questions asking why,
Past the fears that once ran high.
Here for reasons yet unknown,
Walking roads not always my own.
Bearing burdens, carrying scars,
Still reaching toward distant stars.
Past living shy,
No cage remains, no tears to cry.
Only echoes in the sky
Whispering softly, “Tell me why?”
Yet my heart still beats,
Refusing silence, refusing retreat.
Through every loss and every song,
Unplugged, yet moving along.
