The Heartbreak Song
The Heartbreak Song
I listen to my heart
It sounds like a house after a daughter's wedding
It sounds like a school during summer vacation
It sounds like a city after the end of the war...
It sounds like a motorbike in a mechanic shop
It sounds like a gramophone in a museum...
It sounds like trees during autumn
It sounds like clouds during summer
It sounds like a bed with just one body
It sounds like a cupboard with just one person's clothes
It sounds like a balcony with just one beanbag
It sounds like a cold coffee with a single straw.
It sounds like a baby before birth
It sounds like a man after death
It sounds like nothing.
Is this emptiness, or is this peace?
