Raven
Straight as the path to the peril, Straight as the line on his brow, Straight as the gaze to the heaven Of dead eyes in darkness of crowds. If to see Without looking If to want Without lust, If it's true That the paths untaken Lead to no loss... If to ask about trifles be wiser, If to numb all the voices inside, Then all black becomes nobler among lights, And a mind with a madness entwined. I wanted to write down my last wish, And instead I am back at all rhymes. 'Tis my nature. I'm tired of fighting Foolish hopes too stubborn to die. The raven spoke truly a diamond, And the Voice was of a rare kind That either passes through mind or Stays forever inside Knifed with a memory, I feel no rage For the day's diseased fumes. I hold the feather, accept my doom, For he awaits to meet me soon. 14.05.19.

"Ми усе подолаємо разом..."
«Ми усе подолаємо разом, Ми усе з тобою минем, І я не боюся поразки, Я не боюсь, що помрем!» А я чула і вірила щиро, Немов би п'ять років було, Я була неймовірно щаслива І такою не стану вже знов. І знаєш, коли мені складно, Я твої згадаю слова — Вони затримають слабкість, Запевнять мене, що жива... «Ми разом усе подолаєм! Мила, ти чуєш мене?» Я чую і знову чекаю, Що небо тебе поверне... І ось майже два роки Шукаю тебе — не знайшла, І, до смерті роблячи кроки, Я твої згадаю слова... І до сліз сон мене вразить, Де знову почую тебе: «Ми усе подолаємо разом, Ми усе з тобою минем...»

I Saw a Dream
I saw a dream, and there were you, And there was coldness in your eyes. I wonder what a kind of true Made you become as cold as ice. And later I looked back to get a sense This empty glance was hellish call of past. It used to be a high and strong defense Against the world, the pain and me at last. You looked at me, and peering in your soul, I felt so lonely, as something vital died. And that is what I fear most of all - That nothing gentle will remain inside. Inside of you. Inside of me as well. And nothing will be said to farewell.
