Take it

Аля Степаненко
One day you’ll need to go
And then can even die,
Though all this seems so wrong,
I’ll take it with some wine.

For others you’re the best,
But sometimes you’re just mine,
So I go through the mess
With shadow of a smile.

I’m certainly not deaf
And love your silent cry
For reasons you don’t have,
For something new to try.

Too bad I feel so warm
In burning winds of time,
I’m some drab ash in storm
That needs you just to fly.

We always ease to give,
When gift’s the worst of crimes.
But darkness where we live
Have million lighting lines.

One day I’ll need to go
And then can even die,
Though all this seems so wrong,
You’ll take it with some wine.
