Fractured Landscape of Memory

I feel more incomplete
Now than before 
and my heart is a cartography
Of interrupted rhythms.
In the echoes of ancestral whispers
I stand fragmented,unfinished.
Lands that once cradled our songs
Now distant unreachable, 
My heart beating between
Bitter and sweet landscapes
Dreaming of retracing old paths
But my imagination incomplete.
My hearth's rhythm interrupted.

Change never seems to be an improvement. I also think back to happy former days.

A vast portion of the land,hilly parts through which the poet long ago frequently traveled to outside the state boarding night super now occupied by the immigrants and narco terrorists from Myanmar and a particular majority native people to which the poet belongs now cannot enter this, part of their own ancestral land.The poem seems based on this.
