Image for the poem For a Poet

For a Poet's Love

For the love of a Madman,  
who was made to be lifted up by me;
It is not worth hindering - it will not pass.
My fate has become entwined with his.
And there is one life, and one death awaits us.
 
He is loyal, he calls me his favorite.
I try to reject hot words as they beguile.
Before I was not so vulnerable.
After the refusal, a new flower bloomed.
 
Now what? Am I crying? Or is it specks of dust.
Caught with the wind in the pool of blue eyes?
And on the cheeks tear after tear
Slide to the feet, sparkling like diamonds.  
 
With a graceful handle, as if made of porcelain,
Brush the sadness from a beautiful face.
A smile for enchanting words.
And again a mask, the mask of a fugitive.
 
You run away from an easy and happy life.
Not forgetting that, in principle, there is only pain.
All around is darkness and debauchery  
Every day I tell myself: "Be careful!".
But this message falls on deaf ears.
 
And he appeared, like a ray of light,
And he illuminated everything around him.
Do not reject the poet in love,
And again I must not make this fatal mistake.
