Oh, my heart!
From the dripping blood
on murder of desires
Nurtured the heart
to flourish with satires
Now all emotions are mock
and laughter is fake
everything is superficial
for my heart’s sake
Like an innocent child
heart is happy with possessions
like the lifeless toys
that do not play with emotions
Devoid of feelings
How can happy be the heart
Am fooling myself
Deceiving the poor heart.
