KRYSTYNA GRYS 

 

 X X X

                                                      

When a man

isolates himself in sleep

a woman threads

ambers of memories

 

She stands in a window

covered with the moon

The stars are dancing

in her eyes

 

Rooted

in throbbing silence

she’s waiting for love

 

                                                                       

 One Night Butterfly

 

This evening

the candles are fading

from the tenderness

 

Sticky from honey words

I'm draining the goblet

flavoured with sorrow

 

In the morning I lost

the ability to fly

 

                                    

 Meditations On A Sleepless Night

 

Silver-eyed sat back in the chair

Made my face white

With its brilliance

 

Silence hung between us

finally he asked

What do you think about on this bright night

 

I wonder what would be

if I wasn't here

Would I be there

where it's always better

where we are not

 

I think what else

may happen

A little tired I'm going

ever shorter path

 

Where will it take me

Would it be the source

where I’ll get the Light

 

Would it be a surf

where none last resort

can help
