Like Lightning Poem by Liza Sud

And so you came. Like lightning.
As quiet as soul's discharge.
As lost in the past my motherland.
Amazement of calling prize.

I would never have thought - never
Never even dreamed sometimes at night,
That you'll be with me of the same age
that you'll lie as a wave on my heart.

I confused you, my love, with too many,
Only for a glimpse or one line,
And sedentary lived as a wayward,
poison instead of water drank.

Now I am ashamed before you
For my past life
Now I see - I was thief and lowbrow,
someone's else I was plowing a track.

And with you - we have night mists,
With small volume of Blok in hand,
And nothing more we need,
And life away... is light...
