Anna Osipova Poems

If this world comes to fall apart,
Comes to burn in the fire some day,
Still without fear in heart,
I will sleep on your shoulder again.
...

Don't stop to wonder -
Leave no place for regrets.
Go into things, and out, over, under
And in between until you meet the end.
...

If I die, don't put me in the ground,
Hate to think of you all standing round
Little hole with coffin, me inside,
Dressed in black and holding camomiles.
...

Blue whales
under blue waves
tell tales
of old days,
...

Pillow in a shape of a heart,
bed in a shape of a circle,
lighter in a shape of a tower,
music box in a shape of a turtle,
...

Silence and space and time…
Hoping that I can find
Rhythm in a beat of a heart,
Meaning in shining star,
...

Lonely violin is weeping
On my shoulder in the night,
And the notes like running tears
With my bow I will wipe.
...

The candle is tired. The fire dyed out.
My tears are real - your smiles were fake.
You wanted so much for us to be coupled,
I wanted for us to break.
...

I'm out of myself and of my house,
My things and feelings piled on the floor,
The keys are useless. And I doubt
That I remembered to lock up the door.
...

I'm falling backwards...Falling up the sky
But everybody think that I'm flying...
I'm passing birds and clouds... From up high,
I can't accuse those on the land of lying.
...
