TSL, Daipayan Nair's July 7 prompt 7: "heartless beat “

I can’t hear your heartbeat 

B’cause you’re heartless

A stone has more rhythm 

If you listen long enough 

You might perceive 

If you’re lucky

The flux of time within

The pulse of the universe

Heartless yet surrounding us

Open yourself, inhale it

Learn and become

The wisdom of the stone.
