One night
I dreamt a bizarre dream;
I had given birth
to my own heart indeed!
It was all red and tender
like a delicate newborn,
I was thinking of what to do
and couldn't breathe at all.
Or could I really breathe
without my heart in me?
Stared at my heart and murmured
'how this can be?!'
Holding it astound
in my weak shaky grasp,
too cautious was I
might slip-off my hands.
Very puzzled and uneasy
in a totally new state,
was afraid, carelessly
might wound it by mistake.
I was concerned and worried
and looked for a shade,
where I could put my heart
comfy and in safe.
As you approached me
with a deep caring look,
didn't give a second thought
just handed it over to you.
I couldn't guess my heart
might be - too heavy for you
But you're so gentle and kind,
you just couldn't refuse.
I was so much relieved -
right away went to sleep
and was dreaming in my dream
of only you and me.
In my dream I woke up late
and you were already gone,
leaving my heart behind
but not a scratch at all.
You couldn't say face to face
it was too heavy for you,
so you left it there, while
I was dreaming in dream of you.
I woke up at last, in my bed,
withered as much as could be
and couldn't hold my awful tears,
as my heart was aching in me
.......
.........
since then I offer my heart
to every passer by
Alas! It doesn't want to go;
My heart, screams and cry.
It looks for you everywhere
even in dreams in my dream.
Embracing it I wait, I know
someday you’ll really come again.
I've to offer it, back to you;
My heart has become all yours
and it doesn't listen to me,
I have no use of it anymore.
