Life and Death at the Station Cafe (death, conflict and life)
Book III: Life
Poem III-5: Open Heart
I faced everybody
Holding nobody
Sharing with none
The tears and the pains
Of the regreted words
Of the forgotten names
Of the rejected
Whose love remains
You spread your wings
Lightened the darkness
Warmed my life
Delivered happiness
To my eyes
Thus, only
And only to you
I opened my heart.
