If only

Ксения Арбузова
If only for a single second
I could have felt your presence next to me...
I’d turn backwards a poisoned metal
To see the sun and, finally, just be.
The strongest you could only see in battle,
The warrior who comes with a shield of gold -
The weakest flower, closing eyes in rattle,
The one who comes along to turn together old.
If only we could be together
