no vows

Оксана Куртина
you want a bunch of pretty words from me -
there are just three i know and can pronounce.
i've never been an orator, you see,
could never write majestic noble vows.

i hope you will be satisfied with that -
my knees in humble touch of steady ground.
but have no disappointment or regret -
my feelings are much bigger than they sound.

there is no bird with songs as loud and bright,
no beast with roars as dangerous and killing,
there also should be not the slightest fright -
i give myself to all your wish and willing.

so let me go, you said that now i'm free;
i hope that i correctly got the message.
and please don’t ever ask "return to me" -
i'll come as soon as gods reveal the passage.
