You...
poetry by: Zviad Kechakmadze

You are
My joy,
My love,
My dream
And my dasire...
I want to be
With you,
To pray for you...
I want you to be
My thought,
My breath...
You are
My grace,
My purity,
My dream
And my smile...
My endless life
And my odd death
You are...
I wanted to say this

You know,
I love you so much
Want kissing you
Till the morning,
I've already been waiting
For you for years,
I've already been feeling
Shy for years,
Morninig is beginning with you
And night is beginning with you,
I'm trying to be with you
Counting seconds,days,
I'm not able to go away
And to forget everything,
Now I'm missing you
As much as snow in summer,
Changing days for days
Years are falling out like hair,
You know,
I am longing for you
As much as rain in summer,
Can't explain how much
Can't say why either,
I'm tossing like life
Being without you and alone,
I won't be frightened
By tiredness fatigue,
You know,
How much I love you
How much I yearn for you now,
You are my heart
My life beating,
For years,
I've been thinking of this
And that is
What I wanted to say.
Do you know now what I want?..

Do you know now what I want?
I want snow to fall on me...
And to meet you from the start...
And your kiss to warm me up.
I want some colours to be snowing...
Do you know now what I want?
Suddenly to forget you
And to meet you from the start...
I want to be abandoned with the years...
Do you know what else I want?
The day to be left in the past
And to go on living from tomorrow
I want the sun to throw light on my heart
And then to rain...
And to fall in love with you so much...
Not to realize whats happening to me...
Do you know now what I want?
I want such a little sky
And in snow, in wind, in rain
Weather to be fondling me...
I know I am dreaming now...
And the sun has set somewhere...
I always want to worry about you
And I dont want otherwise...
Do you know now what I want?
I want the sun, the little sky...
And be kissing me the whole night
Giving me the day from the start...
AGAIN
poetry by: Zviad Kechakmadze
Translation by: Natalia Sichinava
I'm meeting Spring
Without you again...
Though you are
My only thought...
Sometimes we're dying
For being born again...
Embroidering some
Pretty dreams
We're trying to suffice
Them the whole life...
Sometimes we're losing
Our love for falling
In love more again...
I've entrusted
My life to God...
Being worried about
Your parting so much...
Alas! I can't be forgiven...
We're dragging sins
The whole life ...
For being forgiven
By God at last...
Perhaps I'm playing
The last chords...
Thinking never be able
To write any strophes...
I'm standing alone
Behind March...
However thinking
Of being with you...
There's quite different
The heaven is white...
Devised sorrow has
Withered my thoughts...
Poems are my God now...
That's why longing
For you again
I'm meeting March
And Spring without you...
Not knowing what to do
If suddenly I burn
Desiring for you...
Perhaps now I'm dying for
Coming in rain,in Spring again...

Every night silently
I was speaking to God...
I desired for you
But you did not, alas...
I hope you'll come again
And make me crazy
As in old times...
I'm beginning life
From the start...
But I can't
Erase the past...
