Thump Thump Thump
Feet hitting the ground
She finds comfort in
The familiar sound
Badump Badump
Her heart beats strong
Its steady rhythm
like a song
Thump Thump Thump
The people stare
Her hair unbound
Her feet are bare
Badump Badump
Her pulsing heart
Never falters
As whispers start
Thump Thump Thump
Feet meeting ground
Fast as lightning
Can’t be bound
