Poem/ShortStory

                                                                               Heartbeat


     Thump thump, the only sound is the beating of my heart as it echoes in my ears.  Thump thump.  My eyes slowly drift out of focus to the sound in my head. Thump thump. The outside world disappears as I draw in on myself. Thump thump, lights flash in front of my eyes to the tune of the beat, swirling and spinning in the darkness that I have gathered around myself.  Like twin universes as viewed from afar; my mind reals in fascination all bemused, I giggle to the outside world.  My body stuck slack jawed, arms at my side, the flow of the day rolls around me unconcerned.  Thump thump, the seconds slowly tic by feeling like an eternity.  The events of the past month play across the empty void, flowing in and around the orbs I have created. The way it all started, the silly smiles, the way she entertained my dreams, the eternal waiting for that fateful day to arrive, the sweaty palms, the indecision in what to wear, how to do anything. Thump thump, the orbs dance in time to the music like a slow soft ballad. And time in my little world fades to fast forward, I can feel the wind blow across my face speckled with sand, the sun beating down, so familiar, and new again at the same time, the smell of the ocean.... home, home at last. Thump thump, the tempo changes and it all comes crashing in on me, the phone calls, the late night chats, the texts, all the things about her that made my heart smile, and remember what it was to feel special again. Thump thump, and as reality crashes in on my make believe world like the waves in the surf forcing me back to reality i straighten up and put on a smile as you answer the door and say hello to me for the very first time. Thump thump.

An N1 original work.
