MY HEART BEATS SLOWLY AND THEN FASTER

My heart beats slowly, and then faster,
remembering how it feels to live again.
At the edge of earshot a guitar starts tinging,
hiking up the slopes of a dusty clay hill
to get to the pinnacle,
to look around the landscape,
because somewhere around is you,
and I can feel you in my heart's beat.

Not necessarily on Binal, but somehow related to the optimistic mood she has got me climbing into gradually.
The last line was not part of the original poem and was added separately, and not related to Binal.
