I'm sorry you missed the summer downpour
On July night, at the Baltic Bay,
You didn't see the magic of those lines.
The wave, so lovely to the touch of hands,
The sand, where stones are scattered around,
The landscape, which hasn't changed here in ages.
I'm sorry we won't get again on the train,
That will cross this time zone
Along the needle that's pulled to the pole.
That there won't be a party reflecting
In that compartment window, with ever changing picture,
And we won't wake up in each other's embrace.
Late at night
Through all the commas I finally came to a full stop.
Address. Mail.
Don't worry, I won't dedicate you a line anymore.
Silence. The sounds
Reach me rarely at nights.
Blurred letters.
I write and never expect a reply.
Thoughts, rhymes.
The light remains, the sound remains, the rest is erased.
Fading digits.
I called just to hear your voice.
Frozen Horseman1.
The Horseman froze, the river grew cramped in the channel.
Verges, edges.
I love without the need in reciprocal feeling.
