I hang on hiding pain in heart
Pain held in heart I’m hanging on,
In life’s gravest gloom, going on.
World vicarious watch as if fun,
From a cracked mirror peeping on.
Smoke billows from my burning heart,
I battle but it’s blazing on.
How self-seeking can be this world!
Friends as foes, askance looking on.
With one-track will my woes wear me,
Though hurt, my heart’s just heaving on.
