The heart is your machine, 
    The source of your 
Existence. 
                                     With every breath, 
Blood pulses throughout 
Your body like a well-oiled machine. 
Your veins are the vessels for blood, 
To travel throughout 
your body. 
The electricity is the fuel that charges 
The pump that is your 
Heart. 
Lub dub, beats the chambers,  
Powering the machine  
Sustaining life.
