POETRY

chopin ballade 4

by Eliza Davies © June 2013

she comes
from the whispers of the sleeping sand
as if images half there
were caught in the photograph
on a strong air
as if an invisible golden frame
embraced the world
or was it the arms of a loving god
as if a bare anticipation soared high
like your eyes in a middle of a smile
before the reason overcomes

oh the fabric of your music
makes my soul cry
even though you hear no tear
yet the f minor key prevails
white crushing waves
a nightingale
old human fear
chopin
you must have been there
in love
in pain
in vain?

kołysz mnie – ukołysz
w tulipanach twoich rąk
w zieleni łodyg wilgotnych od łez
gdzie serce jak mały ptak i głębokie
jest
w kalejdoskopie barw smaków i czuć
ty jesteś wiosną
która miała przyjść
jesteś – nie – stąd
ty kładziesz na mnie szale twoich ciepłych słów
dwoje oczu obmytych w wodospadach rzek dobrych
i dalekich mórz

więc ukołysz mnie prosto tak i cicho
jak gdyby to kot
wyszedł na spotkanie księżyca
w środku bezpiecznej nocy
i pił twój czar rozlany
po strumieniu gwiazd
aksamit twoich ust
srebro warg
chcę usnąć już
zatrzymać czas
trwać
