Pure
Katerina, angel of Kharkiv, so aptly called, amazing Katerina,
Your
parents proud, cherished daughter, their joyful little ballerina.
Now burdened,
by an unwanted war, that stole, their future away,
Taking
their dutiful daughter, who sparkled, their little star of ballet.
Now
living, the loving memories of the past, their precious one lost,
Languishing,
in the taste of tears, they shed, left to pay deaths cost.
Oh,
beautiful Katerina, within that special place, set inside my soul,
Your
absence, I cannot bear, pain I cannot take, nor time console.
Katerina
for you, my heartache, and the tender tears, in grief I cast,
The
painful streams, that in steadfast love, inside forever, will last.
Oh, how
I yearn! To be captured again, by your enchanting spell,
Watching
the rhythm, of your dance, making my sensations swell.
Where
we first met, within the mystical land, of fanciful thought,
Beyond
the reality gap, my life of sadness, ere my pain is wrought.
Our
minds melding within, the spell you crafted, my worries gone,
Charmed
by the magic made, making my heartbeat, ever strong.
My eyes
locked in a daze, within the enchanting dreams, you wove,
My
thoughts, securely caught, in the paradise, that treasure trove.
Drawn
into your dance, your inner core, where your magic waited,
To be
as one, in the make belief world, where harmony resonated.
Caught
in each moment, as we swayed, side to side, in
the dance,
Lightly
floating, in the clouds, caught in the motion, of our trance.
The
symphony softly playing, its evocative refrain, the tune in sync,
Each
movement, and sound, bound by the other, inside our rink.
Delicate
notes playing, in accord, following the harmonious score,
As the
tenderness of our touch, resonated inside, calling for more.
Each,
and every move made, like the golden arrow, forever true,
Where
beautiful memories remain, lodged inside my heart, for you.
The
powerful chorus, that sung in harmony, my senses captivated,
Caught
in the sanctuary, of the never-never land, that you created.
Where
we sailed upon the stage, weightlessly soaring, in our mind,
Swept
along within the tide, leaving our troubled thoughts, behind.
Wrapped
in each other’s arms, in that embrace we held, so strong,
Plotting
the path we traced, to the sweet sound, of lovebirds in song.
Light
of my life, magic of your touch, soft colour, of your misty eyes,
Wherein,
my spirit once swam, within those deep pools, of paradise.
The
cozy place, blanket of warmth, wrapped in your tender throw,
Love of
my heart, no one can erase, the joyful vision, luminous glow.
Each
day, I dread the awful pain, that returns, to take my breath,
As I am
cast, down into the heartless vision, of your dreadful death.
Still
locked, inside the grief, within the war, that knows no bounds,
The
awful sounds, where lines are crossed, and little hope is found.
Reminding
me, of the angry battle, that restlessly rages, in my sleep,
Struggling
to endure, the greatest test of all, the painful cost, I keep.
The
heartbreak, of love we lost, each morning, the dream shattered,
As each
crushing blow is dealt, upon my heart, bruised, and battered.
Knowing
that your return, shall never be, upon the stage we shared,
And the
beautiful embrace, of our dance, as our souls were paired.
If I
could bring you back, across that heavenly divide, I surely would,
Alas,
the power, I do not possess, I know that, in vain, I never could.
One day
I shall pass, across the void, where life, and death, alternates,
In
search of the place, in paradise, where my sweet Katarina awaits.
