YOU WON’T UNDERSTAND


When your name
Gets inscribed in my heart
You
Are incarnated
In cores of my heart

When I see droplets of water in your eyes
A full stream sways in my mind
You flaky
What will you understand?
When I scribble your name on paper
A song emerges
And echoing in my ears
Asks me
Why are you so annoyed

How to explain to you
Who does not like to live heartily?
