Once, the heart
expressed itself freely
listened without resistance
but nowadays
my heart has fallen into silence.
No longer inclined to read
no longer willing to write
my heart shows no interest in listening
it seems to have lost its sense of purpose.
I’m clueless about its whereabouts
my heart, nowadays
no longer resides within me.
