Heartstrings

What was it
that tugged
at my heartstrings
Your words
or the emotion behind them
Was it such a reflection
I could feel the words
Was it a silent recognition
An unspoken message
our hearts understood
They beat as one,
the ones who knew
Just waiting for the day
They'd recognize that beat
Though it might be late
But never less sweet.
