My lifeless heart



Sometimes you would lay your hand on my throat,
pressing hard with your fingertips while I'd freeze to bear the unease.
I always wondered why you did that, until you told me once.

"I'm just checking,
trying to feel
your heartbeat,
making sure
you're still alive..."


Although it would have sounded ridiculous to anyone,
for I was certainly not dead, I knew exactly what you meant.

It's just that I..
can sometimes seem...
so lifeless.
