In the blue sea, a golden lotus blooms.
Nobody knows why.
No, no, no! It indeed blooms in my own mind.
It starts swinging,
raising feelings
and secretly making me understand its (my/their) agony.
The honeybee comes buzzing,
thirsty,
with the hope of honey.
All the affection stored in the pollen
has been poured into (their) heart(s).
The language of the mind’s soliloquy
is known to Him only.
My mental peacock stays at a distance,
and observes (them) dancing in seclusion / a secluded dance.
With deep exhalation,
the upsurge of emotions rises from afar.
