Tormented Heart

        An overwhelming sadness
                        bows  to a cloudy
                           chrysanthemum.
                    The joy of a shattered  dream
                       is far better than a sparkling
                                 flowery desert.
                         The  forbearing sky
                             weaves its bliss 
                            into an ecstatic, rambling
                                     rose.
                          In the darkest nights
                             of summer a dreamlike
                                rapture spelling 
                                   the ruined star.
                          In the depths of happiness
                               is hidden an abyssal
                                        daisy.
                              Oh, tormented heart
                                   your brightness is the lonely
                                             sun.
                          The stars shed a sun-drenched
                                           blood.
                               Spring seems like dead 
                                       butterflies.
                                 The  heart is a dusty,deserted
                                              sky.
                             Oh, dear tormented heart
                                 your innocence a sunny
                                          grass.
                               In the tapestry of tears
                              a relentless rage cuts
                               to pieces the tempestuous
                                    blue dawn.
                             My long days ,my long nights
                                   are  so awful, so stormy
                                      and   full of pain.
                              Winter flourishes and it is 
                               full of undying breath. 
                               Optimism crowns the ragged
                                            clliffs.
