A Stone In My Heart

There was not
A stone in my heart
Who put it there?
And it has become
Bigger and bigger
Suddenly a heavy feeling
Struck my heart
As if the whole life
Were to be crushed
I tried my best to stand it
But I couldn’t help asking
Heavens, what's wrong with me
When morning exercises
Someboday told me
To learn to face calmly
Just like a sentence in the book
Mind needs nourishing
A calligrapher told me
To wash my heart in a clear pool
And Beethoven told me with music
People can ever be beaten down
All these words are good and helpful
But the stone is still there
"All who work hard to bear the burden of..."
Unload your burdens under the cross
I fell down and listened to the words of comfort
Tears of joy
Broke the stone dam
My soul get the scour
And when I stood up
The stone in my heart
Disappeared miraculously[mɪ'rækjələslɪ]
My wife copied a painting by Van Gogh
----The way to the church
Hanging in my house
The man in the picture is taking firm steps
Not caring about the change of seasons
I gazed at her, and again
As if the figure in the painting
Were me
Not her any more
