Lake of the heart
Thought-consciousness is aroused in the lake of the heart
Fragile hopes are thrown into the abyss of pain.
The thirsty mind plays with my nightmares
Sitting on the shore of this life even after prolonged swimming.
I light the extinguished lamp with the afflicted face
Memories covered in darkness are the random boundaries.
Yet I sing with hope, the triumph of life
Did not see the way forward, though hear the melodious tune.
