*The sighs are the silent laments of the heart As the heart is being crushed in a clenched fist Slowly squeezing out all the love it can hold Constricting the flow of life through the veins Slowly, the mind goes into a partial coma As the numbness spreads all over the body Bereft of all the reflexes, to react and fight back In a vegetative state, the slacking body lies there With only outside support to keep you alive But you are controlled by the sinister supports Barely surviving, and on the brink of death Slowly the laments of the heart die, with a sigh* © Amitav (Radiance)

Heart’s Lament
*The sighs are the silent laments of the heart As the heart is being crushed in a clenched fist Slowly squeezing out all the love it can hold Constricting the flow of life through the veins Slowly, the mind goes into a partial coma As the numbness spreads all over the body Bereft of all the reflexes, to react and fight back In a vegetative state, the slacking body lies there With only outside support to keep you alive But you are controlled by the sinister supports Barely surviving, and on the brink of death Slowly the laments of the heart die, with a sigh* © Amitav (Radiance)
