It turns out
a decade and more
are still not enough
to know you as a whole.
I can still see the beauty in your soul,
Кислий дощ порізав вуглецеве небо.
В місті задихались зірвані квітки.
В пластику закриті, механічні люди
День у день заковують серце у клітки.
Все на біле-чорне стáранно ділили,
Мам,я сиджу у Львові
Зі мною все добре
Ну як сиджу
Я тут проживаю
Мам,мені страшно
Я боюся слово війна
Let’s just face it:
There’s no such thing as unconditional love.
Either Billy Joel or Bruno Mars –
or perhaps some who do the cover versions,
somebody must be lying when they sing:
“Just the way you are.”
I am way past that envy
or that so-called jealousy.
Just a silent observer
to the oblivious or ignorant
to the fact that we’re all different
and the universe always has a way
If age is just a number,
then why does time feel smaller?
Space is no longer
as wide as we once experienced.
Before the digits,
Її серце почало жаріти
І втікала вона в закутень
Щоб ніхто не бачив
Як вона вміє любити
Втікаючи від них
Вдихаючи ворс із твоїм ароматом,
я згадую ті оживаючі сни,
із присмаком солі, і ніжного болю,
де ми святкували початок весни.
І тисяч ночей раптом стало замало,
That is one question
you may never have the guts
to say out loud
here, right to my face.
You can’t fool me with your expressions.
Oh, how we long for you to be
returning home, still healthy
after having sailed away
leaving us waiting by the bay.
The vast ocean hasn’t shown
They say patience is a virtue
and fairy tales aren’t true.
There’s no such thing as ‘love at a first sight.
Such a childish mentality isn’t right.
I know we’ve just met
Everyone calls her Victoria though her real name is Ukraine.
She is so young yet far from knowing nothing of pain.
Her long-awaited summer covered with winter ice.
She was too kind and patient, later she realized
Being so good at forgiving sins is a huge sin itself.
Her experience is her weapon. Her memory is her wealth.
