FROSINA TASEVSKA

 

 

Ashes Of Voices

 

Within me simmers a quiet river

carrying the weight of unspoken words

that the world has chosen to overlook.

The shadows of mothers,

firmly hold my shoulders.

Their tears are clinging

to the eyelids of humanity.

Each drop is a letter

without an address,

a cry from the earth

That long ago lost its voice.

 

I am the mark they leave behind,

The blood that refuses to dry,

And the flame that must burn

like a lantern in the darkness,

Guiding the world toward healing.

Water

 

Let me be the river,

And you, the stones nestled within it.

I flow through a crystal bed,

touched by her untamed, clear embrace

I caress you as you remain still and serene.

I wish to be a vast, deep sea,

And you, a radiant pearl in my tranquil marsh.

That glow is captured within a hard shell,

And I wear it as a precious amulet around my neck.

I long to be a calm ocean stretching into infinity,

Whose waves may be stirred by a storm

A ship drifting above islands of clouds, like you.

I would share with you wild, starry tales.

Water! Water leads, water carries

An emotion that flows.

Fragile yet vibrant, enduring, yours, essential…

Let me be!
