Poems About Time

Melentie PANDILOVSKI

 

Silence 

It is a silent night outside,

a drop of rain,

in time, in time…

a melancholy smell inside,

a spark of truth,

I fly, I fly…

 

The essence of the essence

 

It was on a dreary night,

when our only care

were recent events,

cursing the day,

when the clouds hid the sun,

hid the moon,

late in the autumn,

when things were delayed.

 

A few nights later,

when time elapsed,

then she had said,

to us and to them,

that our time was,

like all other time,

an empty exhibition of our selves.

 

 

Explosion

 

Two explosions at a time,

one of God, and one that’s mine,

follow both into a quest,

seeking for each other’s nest.

 

 

Timing

 

Dispute that stays is how to judge,

of time to call your double fate,

and twice as hard the question’s made,

of how to pass the final gate.

 

 

Double

 

Someone’s coming towards me,

but dressed so much differently,

looking very much like me,

smiling, smiling, liberty.

 

Just as close as he came,

the image went away,

for time has set apart,

tomorrow from today.
