Loreta Muskardin Poems

Some words should be written
with a black crayon on a black wall
To live only in the shadows of mind
Never to be read by anyone else
...

Pa i ne trebam te
dok ovako
mirno i spokojno pored mene
spavas.
...

Zuto-zelenom drvecu nedostaje
zlatno-crveno-narancaste boje
Pa da bude kao Connecticut
Minus Hrvatske ovce I krave
...

Today
with gifts
and attention
free time and
...

Necu plakati i necu biti tuzna
Sjecati cu se sretnih dana
Kao onda kada si mi dao nadimak
Crni kos I drzao me u svojim rukama,
...

Patiently descending into a silence
And Silence hurts.
...

Like sadness contemplated in solitude,
Thoughts are burning inside me,
Engulfed in seductive
Mermaid's song.
...

Today I need to write.
Some unknown power just
ordered:
Go! Sit down! Write!
...

Sunny afternoon and a street
Full of strangers
...

I

Burn, my frail heart.
Burn slowly and thoroughly.
...
