A Stone

Here I sit Solid in form Exposed to the elements Never being born I wait to be found And put in a pocket If cut I won't bleed I may be a locket In search for nothing I'm not alone I'm beautiful inside Outside I'm a stone People pass by me They never stop A child picks me up Into a basket I drop I sit in a room 'Til one day I'm touched The feel of a hand Never meant so much
