Tulips are still red,Let's jump to the moon!"

Pictures: Valadimir Kush

Hold my hands

 While the tulips are still red

Lets walk up the back allies of Gardenia in my mind

 




Sleeping, holding each other tight
Till there is time

Let’s swim in the cold lake 

 Hugging the red Tulip once more

In the dark night

 Let’s get all excited by the sound of the train

Climbing the staircase that bypasses all grandness

Hold out our hands  

Feel the moon

Take my hand

To jump over the closed minded space

Staring at the moon, Today!

Weep for the childhood we never had

Look into my eyes

Parallel lines are turning my green soul, yellow

Between the lines

You will find a small blinking star

Watching a mermaid swim

Her feet in water, hands on the moon

Rolling in the grass of dreams

Eating pomegranate

Drip ,drip, drip

Pomegranate juice is splashing all over me

Like chickenpox

 

 You lick me

I taste like strawberry

You taste like pomegranate

I wear my boots

To run in the rain

“Hey, you!”

You yell at the car that splashed water

All over me

 Tulips are still red

My clothes still wet

Let’s jump to the moon.
