Thousand Years’ Heart

‘Is there really Love?’

Composed and dictated by Puabi

So---you believe that the heart dies,

After only one or two years;

Death is the doorway to Lethe,

The heart will forget.

They mummified me expertly,

So my heart and soul will live on,

And remember.

Thousands of years-----

Combat, struggle, conquest, control.

But, although my heart has forgotten all of those,

It remembers one thing

And it makes me wonder—

‘Is there really Love?’

Until now

When I have discovered Love

In the heart and soul of my lover
