Dmitriy Kokarev Poems

You're not what you used to be
You've changed and gone astray
You used to be so tender
So lovely and so pure
...

You always were the one for me
You always were the one who fails to be there
You always had the answers
To the questions that I never asked
...

Why should we ever speak again?
It was pretty clear right from the start
No more journeys to the realm of pain
Your heart is just another piece of art
...

Why try to understand the things that only take place in our heads
Why try to solve the riddles that cannot be undone
Why suffer on this planet just to leave everything behind one day
Why try to find a reason not to end it all today
...

Into my heart you entered
Just to hang out for a while
You got yourself the best room
Only to trash it
...

I don’t think I ever will forget you
You are the perfect one for me
I don’t think I’ll ever move on
You are too good to just let go
...

In my eyes a sight divine
An angel with wings on fire
A tiny fairy high on love
A troll asphyxiating
...

Up on the roof of our house
I saw the bird that I had never seen
Of colors of the rainbow
And of unbelievably tiny size
...

Try to see what is it that I’m feeling?
Try to find out what lies deep beneath
Beneath the pretty complexion of this make-up world
Beneath the pretense and the mind games that we play
...

You can never hold onto something for eternity
And the good things always end too fast
The candle that you lit that night
Has melted along with my heart
...
