Feeling Heartbeat

(Completed Sept 9, 2017)

I found myself wanting to hear my heart beat. Since I couldn't, I reached under my shirt to place palm flat on top of chest. Cold at first before warming up. Being able to feel it beat strong, strong enough to push up out of my chest is a reminder that I'm still mortal. That my inner clock is not up. There remains time to accomplish what I was always meant to.
