The Isolation Of My Heart Poem by Ehsan Ehsan

THE ISOLATION OF MY HEART!

The brooding gloom sitting cross legged
Like an ascetic exchanging the silent gestures
Lazily with my meditative self
In a fit of nothing but placid staring
With a serenity of still and exquisite brilliance
She asks me what kind of experiences in the world
I had been undergoing du ring my stay on earth
I heave a sigh of pain and sink low
Into a somber thoughtfulness
From a glowing white to a dreadful redness
Into a tranquil dignity the falsity of which
Is clearly reflected on my face like a short day
That comes and departs for ever
Yet evoking the great spirit of the past
And the abiding memories within me
Of the night of time, I want to tell
The gigantic tale in which I had been
The hero and the pursuer of fame
Just the time I was going to start my story
There was a roar in the sky and I was benumbed
With the isolation of my heart!
