My heart burns
Irregularly, it turns
Did someone set it aflame?
Look around! there's no-one to blame

With swiftness and vigour
Like a whirlwind, it blows with terror
Without restraint, and with aptness
the rhythm makes me restless

My heart burns with no passion
Like a bouncing ball, not knowing its next direction
Burning like a bush on fire
Only gradually to retire

« return.
