Love is you
by Saniya Galeyeva
It`s a bird.
Look at it.
It is me.
Not a tomtit,
Not a bullfinch.
I`m a Sirin.
Count my wings.
Do you see?
Do you see?
There are three,
Three white wings.
Look at me.
It`s a mask,
Not a face.
Do not touch.
I will tell
You a tale
About Punch.
It is true.
It`s my fate.
It`s not false.
This old tale
Is a blade.
Let us toss
Who should stab
This sharp blade
Into me.
On your lap
There`s a bird.
Do you see?
I am scratching
your hand and your arm
With my sharp claws
and pecking your palm.
I`m not singing
about love. I`m mute.
`Cause for me now
love means only you.

Любовь - это ты
Сания Галеева
Это птица,
Посмотри.
Это я.
Не синица,
Не снегирь,
А Сирин.
Сколько крыльев,
Посчитай,
У меня.
Их не два -
Целых три.
Три крыла.
Это маска,
Не лицо.
Не срывай.
Эти сказки
И письмо
Для тебя.
Сказка - правда,
Не кривда,
Не ложь.
А ещё -
Это бритва.
И нож.
Я царапаю
руки
твои
Когти птичьи
не пальцы,
увы.
Не пою,
а молчу,
о любви
Потому
что любовь
- это ты.
