III. Stop and think for a while
March 28, 2025 at 4:36 AM
I’m standing near the balcony
In the lonely and quiet hall.
Stop and think for a while
There was no reason before.
The discharged phone’s keeping quiet
So as not to me distract,
Waiting patiently in the pocket
With out considering the fact
That maybe someone is calling
While I’m standing here and staring
Cars and people are rumbling,
Cat is scratching on the stair…
Birds by transparent shadows
Are looming against ringing sky.
Setting sun is smiling at me —
Friendly I’m squinting eyes.
The keys were detained in the flat;
Spring is my favorite season.
Stop and think for a while
Soon there will be no reason.
