JASMINA SFILIGOJ 

 

It Wasn´T Meant To Be

 

These verses of regret

They are my dedication

To you, golden-haired boy

From some distant past

The only one of all the others

Who loved me with all his heart

 

Forgive me if you can

Because I was too young

And I couldn't know

How much suffering is caused by

The one who leaves without words

 

Why am I wondering now

How love just melted away

Why didn't we last forever

Why I stopped loving you

And why some good girls

Always fall on the bad guys

 

 

Flashback

 

How I would like to turn back time

to correct and change something,

to stay away from some people,

to keep some words quiet,

to avoid some situations,

to oversleep some events,

to turn into another street,

to be somewhere else,

to travel somewhere far away,

to miss some challenges,

to accept some ideas,

to take advantage of some opportunities,

to choose the right side,

to be the creator of my own destiny,

not to depend on anyone

and finally to realize

that I have only myself

 

 

The End (Sunset)

 

Once I draw the line

At the end of my journey

I will only wish for one thing

To dive into the sea of colors

On the fiery canvas of heaven

Looking at the sun

And never to come back
