Drumbeat

do not ignore the sound of your heartbeat.
listening others is important too, yes,
but take time to silence the noise
and hone in on listening to your heart

do you hear it?
the orchestral music of your life
the colorful, rhythmic bounce
serendipitous, harmonious tunes

seize it. take it all in, and live it.
you deserve to hear this melody.
it will guide you the way to home
home that will always be within you.
