by Marin Angel Lazarov
Once, when we were young,
with our eyes fixed on the night
we flew. Outlines rose
touching the thickest — thighs.
Once... Wasn't it too late
to disturb young souls?
We burned with love — immature.
And slowly we swam in tears.
And slowly we arrived, naively,
at pain and longing — evil.
Exposing hearts, united,
under seagull waves.
Longings — freedom taken over,
raising ridiculous heavens.
And they fall into old age, mature,
idiots with an inner trace.
