REFLECTIONS © 2011
Against my crushed chest,
The imperfect crime, with love
Standing as the main subject.
It is love, with its complexities,
That takes center stage in this drama,
And the imperfect crime, reflected
In the pains of the heart and reason.
The weight of the mistake, the unatoned guilt,
Is a burden that clings to the being,
And love, even with its flaws,
Is the lead actor, driving the suffering.
Thus, the crushed chest bears
The weight of crime and love in conflict,
And each heartbeat is a reminder
Of the lived drama, of the love left unsaid.
