  I loved you, and I probably still do,
And for a while the feeling may remain...
But let my love no longer trouble you,
I do not wish to cause you any pain.
I loved you; and the hopelessness I knew,
The jealousy, the shyness - though in vain -
Made up a love so tender and so true
As may God grant you to be loved again.


Translated by Genia Gurarie, 11/10/95

this poem hit me like a thousand bullets.. only in true love and pain can we fully open our hearts and wish someone the best, amidst the scars they left..

Perhaps a message of this kind may cause love to be reconsidered though rejected at first tender! Puskin's poem is something to think about even after a thing was rejected!
