Forgive me...

Зоя Смольник
Forgive me for my feeling,
For my dream.
Forgive my passion,
Which you have awoken.
Forget me quickly,
I will never scream.
Let no one word about me
Be spoken.

I am afraid
To live without you.
I am afraid
To open eyes at morning.
My life's become so empty,
Nothing new
Can touch my soul,
As if my days are cloning.

My heart is frozen,
No more dreams inside.
I cannot breathe
Without you – you know.
I beg my memory
To pity me at night.
Those sleepless nights -
So many in a row.

You were my world,
My heart's life-giving stream.
The strongest love
I ever had, believe me.
Without your eyes,
Without their gleam
I will be dead.
I already am.
Please forgive me…
