Empty

The streetlights weep in frozen gold —
their light dissolves where your shadow fled.
This shard of time I clutch, too cold...
A music shaped like my heartbeat’s thread.

(Repeat, repeat, the fractured plea—)

My breath writes ghosts on bitter air —
they orbit voids at speed of night.
The hollowed hope that you’re still there...
A flight to paradise? Just flight.

(Lie: "All will be right. All right.")

The bench still bears our phantom shapes —
the city stitches time with icy seams.
My ribs cage fractures from your name —
a requiem for warmth I chase in dreams.

This void no metaphor redeems —
an emptiness far worse than it seems.


Рецензии
Неумытые в осень машины
Просыпаются в белых чехлах
И сегодня их моечки мимо
Лишь потёки на фарах-слезах
