Sense

Sense

written by: Eliza Segiet

translated by: Dorota Stępińska

 

Watch out!
It can happen at any time.
You must be alert,
it may come from an unexpected side.

It will try to pull you towards itself.
Don’t ask yourself if it makes sense!
Or if it is worth the trouble.

Let it happen. Let yourself be seduced.
It’s always better to be loved
than to always yearn for imaginary one.
It is not a naked body
that can awaken your senses –
only goodness has such power.

The most valuable are the days
– not the nights.
These are short.
When the day comes,
it’s important
to have something to talk about to each other.

The longed for, the expected,
the desired one,
comes unexpectedly.
When it happens,
the previously fading silence of the heart
may blaze with heat!
