My heart of Pearl
A burdened mind strolls an empty street
A pendulum in vacuum forever swings.
A soulless me finds solace in suffering,
A bankrupt balance my life ledger brings.
Discovering depths from a wishing well
It's not a straight life, but an intricate maze.
I take the outline of the empty square
and patiently paint colours, blending glaze.
A meadow full of roses...no melancholy
blowing the pristine air, a seductive flute
empty chambers create melody of music
through silent struggles, passions unmute.
My heart of pearl in the hollow of a shell
embraced now abundance of everything.
A barren winter changed to flowery fields
as dreams enraptured in a verdant spring.
