Snowbound Love
Nika Vovich Jan 21
Snow fell silently from the sky,  
Blanketing all, piercing through the dark.  
But it didn’t see our tears—oh why,  
It fell quietly, fading like a spark.  

Snow came down, indifferent, still,  
And an angel descended from the sphere.  
Bringing love with a soft, gentle thrill,  
It landed on palms, like snow—then disappeared.  

It melted away, leaving only a trace,  
Love, warmed by the breath of despair.  
Waking, you screamed, reaching to embrace,  
But snow buried love in the cold, empty air.
This poem was born from the moment I saw how love and snow mirrored each other beneath the soft glow of streetlights.

Eternal Wandering
Nika Vovich Jan 21
I've been searching for you my whole life,
I can't stop, no matter the strife.
Through deadly heat and chilling snow,
Even in hell, I'll continue to go.

Though my head may be silver-haired,
Whiter than snow in the skies,
In my heart, a dream is ensnared –
To find myself in your eyes.

Years have flowed, rivers have dried,
I've roamed the world far and wide.
I lay in my tomb, my eyes softly closed,
Yet you, I never found, as time imposed...
I wrote this poem as a reflection of my fear that true love has slipped away, never to return.

The Abyss's Embrace
Nika Vovich Jan 27
With eyes made moist by wind’s harsh sting,
He watched the day take wing and fade.
His hope had fled, alas, in vain,
The shadow of lost joy remained.

He stared into eternal night,
And wept for pain that gripped him tight
For love and hate, for truths betrayed,
For lies that cut, for dreams that strayed.

Then suddenly, he laughed—so wild,
As though a storm had burst inside.
He stepped into the void below—
And found release from love's cruel woe.

The Queen of My Heart
Nika Vovich Feb 25
And in my heart, spring blooms anew,
I feel the weight of every breath.
My thoughts are filled with only you,
The queen of love who shuns all death.

I've given you my heart and soul,
Drowned in the sweetness of your gaze.
You mended dreams to make me whole,
A dream of bliss in moonlit haze.

I dream, I sleep, I wake each day,
Yet all my thoughts revolve 'round thee.
In you, my love finds every way—
My soul is yours, eternally.

Bound by Fate
Nika Vovich Feb 11
Ah, how I love you!
Oh my God, why must this be?
Yet I lack the strength to break
This cruel fate tormenting me.

Though our parting leaves me grieving,
Life means nothing without love.
Still, I do not curse this sorrow—
Fate is woven from above.

With my heart, I long to hold you,
Crave your touch with burning might.
You alone give life its meaning,
Know my love—my soul’s own light.

A Star Called Love
Nika Vovich Mar 9
Let that star explode and scatter
In the dark and hollow sky.
It will bear love’s name, yet matter—
Love, like all, must fade and die.

But one day, a spark will glisten,
Echoed deep within the heart.
And the soul will wake and listen,
Torn from sleep, to never part.

Dreams will rise, though scorched and broken,
In a heart once burned before.
Yet let’s not forget this token:
Only one love lasts evermore.

Perfect world
Nika Vovich Apr 20
I heed no mortal woes or pleas,
Yet share the planet’s silent pain.
Volcanoes spew their molten seas,
But still, men fail to comprehend.

They cannot grasp the full expanse
Of truths concealed in fated days—
They take our doom as cruel mischance,
Yet might it yield a higher grace?

Human tragedies—a fleeting jest;
The ocean claims but those too weak.
“Inhuman?” Perchance I but attest
To what no heart can hope to tweak.

I feel the wind’s untamed caress
And taste the thunder’s potent roar;
Feel Earth’s deep tremor’s harsh distress—
Deserving rescue? Lost in lore.

The elements’ scourge lies swift and blind,
Its crushing weight defies reprieve.
Embrace the fate that binds mankind,
And heed the seas’ relentless plea.

The seas’ great roar, the wind’s lament,
Earth shaking free from every chain—
All may deliver your descent
And send you to the endless plain.

To that eternal realm of rest,
Where seas lie still, no waves to crest,
And where, alas, no leaf is stirred—
The earth shall wake no more from dreams.

Within those silent halls of time,
No evil shall again pursue.
Only the lyre’s soft, haunting chime—
Perhaps… this is the perfect world?

Beyond the Horizon
Nika Vovich Jan 23
I walked my path up to the skies,
Where wonders unfolded before my eyes.
I suddenly beheld boundless seas,
And the sound of the ocean was a sweet breeze.

It sounded so sweetly in my mind,
As if beckoning me to stay behind.
But I flew on as if in a dream,
Unwilling to part with the its gleam.

Rising high beyond the clouds' embrace,
Where only dragons soar with grace,
Dragons: children of wind and flame,
Eternal dancers in fate's game,

I witnessed humanity's strife,
And a horizon engulfed in fire's knife.
I beheld the impurities of the world,
And realized, Earth's end unfurled!
I wrote this poem because... I feel like it doesn't even need an explanation.

The Current of Ages
Nika Vovich Apr 5
I sailed along the current of ages,
And pondered like many before.
But never beheld the sky’s bright stages,
Nor heard the rain’s soft pour.

I sailed along the current of ages,
Chasing dreams not meant for me.
Trapped in success’s gilded cages —
A fate I hope you’ll never see.

Rejoice in the beauty all around!
Behold what the world has to show!
Forget the days in sorrow bound,
Let your inner sunlight grow.

Gaze at the sky, so pure, divine,
And smile at its shifting hue.
See how the golden sun will shine,
And let its light sing through you.

Reflect — why feel so dismayed?
Is the world truly dark and dim?
Joy hides in every light and shade —
Just look, and let life brim.

— The End —
