Beating heart

A ghost of a boy sits down opposite me

That smile shines through his eyes

He only has love to offer

Wrapped up with a bow, he pushes a box across the table

I opened it to find a beating heart

Pushing it back, I told him to keep it safe

Until a ghost of a girl sits down next to him
