My Simple Heart

I do not have
              cobbled heart,
              nor masonry,
                nor hairy ... but
            my heart is skinned
            equal to peeled tomatoes,
            dug similar a gold mine ...
                I'm not afraid of fear,
                  nor fear of being simple,
                    nor to be sensitive,
                       hardly even tearful ...
              Feelings do not harden
                  tears do not freeze,
                    love, does not burn ...
               So, my heart loose,
                   even dusty
                      in this life,
                        fear,
                          feel,
                             love...!
