MILICA PAUNOVSKA

 

Darkness

 

I will not cry - it does not help.

Nothing will change.

I hide the pain and move on.

Let no one know.

Nothing to notice.

Darkness spreads through the heart,

just as the clock strikes.

Everything is the same.

Everything is like it used to be.

My heart is too sad.

It is too late to change anything.

I want to have you in my dreams.

The only thing that I am missing is you

 

Together, Alone

 

Two souls united as one.

Mine and yours.

Both in the same pain.

Both with feelings hidden.

I never thought

that I will feel your pain.

And in that four-minute moment

was mine too.

 

Now I listen to that song again.

I think of you.

I think of him too.

I wonder how you are,

and I know

just like me.

 

You dream about him,

 you see him,

you feel him, he is gone ...

Step by step,

Or when you pray,

Every time you cry,

Whenever you laugh.

He sees you ....

And I hope he sees me too.

 

Not You

 

The words match ...

Characters are mixed ..

I can not believe-

time flies fast.

 

Strange looks.

Mysterious smiles.

There are tones that strike me,

I would do my best not to delete them.

Some bring me back,

those same pictures, the same feelings,

same sighs, same reprimands ..

And that’s not you.

 

The memory keeps me going.

All the senses are weakened,

it intensifies.

When you ask for a helping hand

you swing in front of you

and there is no one.

 

When you ask for a shoulder to cry on,

you scream,

and loneliness responds.
