So it was falling from the sky

So it was falling from the sky ,

So black against the sky.

I felt so high

and wondered why

He told me: go and find.


'Go find that thing, -

His voice would ring -

And tell me what it is'

I said: 'All right,

I'll go and find

And put your heart at ease.'


And so I went,

and almost I wept,

For he would have to stay.

He kissed my cheek,

I felt so meek,

For what hsd I to say?


I didn't know.

My face a-glow

I knew I'd better go.

I could have died

Of pure delight

I'd even told him so...


He bound my soul

To wind and soil

I'd started to detest.

But cry is vain

Where smile's regained,

Though life may seem a jest.


And so I went

But never wept,

For life is but our choice.

The Heaven's gift

I had received

How dare I not rejoice?!


So hear my words:

'Forget remorse,

And shyness - terror's clasp -

For black on dust

I found at last

And burned the page called "M.B.'s past"...

And opened up "The Future" ------------------
