Heart Beat

Thump, thump, thump. Shhh! Listen …. Thump, thump, thump. Can you hear it? Thump, thump, thump. Can you feel it? Thump, thump, thump. Can you see it? Listen carefully …. Thump, thump, thump. It’s fading …. Slowly! Thump …. Thump …. Thump. It’s dying painfully, Thump, thump…. Thump. It stopped! No! Get some help!! It’s not coming back, it died completely. Why didn’t you listen? Why didn’t you hear? Why didn’t you see? And neither could you feel it? It cried for help, You ignored the signs. It was dying, You didn’t care. You should have listened to your heart. You should have felt it’s pain. You should have heard your hearts cry for help. But now? It’s too late now Because you are already dead.
