As much as you might disrelish
The tales that i gave you to keep,
I'm giving you more, lest they perish;
You shall be the keeper of these

Forever. Don't tell me you hate them,
And in your mercurial manner,
Resisting the secret desire,
You're equally fascinated.

And you, put together by anger,
Will throw them about, torn to dust.
But watch! If you pause they will tangle;
You mustn't play with what you lust.

You Jumped (for Ksenia)
Julia kRu Feb 2012
you jumped
(or flew?)...
and everything
ended...
for us?
or
for you?
you smiled,
you
pretended...
supposed that
it's better.
so -
is there peace?
we certainly hope!

thanks for the
harsh lesson -
it should
serve us right;
it should
stress our plight;
should make us
stop squeeze
lives out of
ourselves...

that's
quite a cruel
ransom.

cross carefully,
please...

"streets merge in my eyes"
Julia kRu Feb 2012
*

streets merge in my eyes -
where am i? what am i?
skies vanish, fall apart -
what am i? who am i?
sitting here, in the road;
in the middle of this lane -
broken, stolen and cross-legged;
songs and tunes - they still remain
the best cure for my pain!

Wake Me (Domodedovo)
Julia kRu Feb 2012
How can anything be even said aloud,
When the whole nation has the highest of doubts?
When the whole nation lives in the shadows of those doubts?
Constantly perusing their whereabouts?
Please wake me!

Are there any words to elevate the ache?
Are there any songs to ease this gnawing pain?
Are there any chants of escape for the souls from their restraints?
Any rhymes to dry tear rains?
Please wake me!

No apologies - fake or real - can help.
No pity - fake or real - can mend.
No anger - fake or real - can be spent.
Only flowers and candles - can yelp.

Yelp for the whole nation who can't speak anymore.
Who have their brothers and sisters - in their core.
Who see their brothers and sisters - to that other shore.

Don't wake me.

Sideroad Girls
Julia kRu Feb 2012
hey, sideroad girls...

why do you do it?
do you get pleasure
out of that?
or it's the money -
after that?
is there pleasure in it?
or is there money in it?
what are your friends like?
have you got any?
who are you saving?
who are you craving?
where is that father
of that child of yours?

hey, sideroad girls...

think your choice over?
follow your heart:
don't let the word "****"
cross your life - over...

Silence
Julia kRu Jan 2010
Silence falls
Upon my city
Darkened halls -
We're gravely seated
Opposite
Each other's wit

Windows hit
The wall and break
Sudden wind
My calmness shakes
"stay or go" -
like fog words flow...

i will stay
and you - you go.

the only reason that i breathe
is looking into your eyes,
and then i'm lost inside the whirlpool
of your lies...

and that same reason that i walk
is just a glimpse of your touch,
and then i'm lost inside the whirlwind
of your talk...

REFRAIN:
will you please me, won't you please me
like i feel you will?
i am not quite sure what is
your desire, still...

so every breath that i do take
is filled with your sweet laughter,
and then i'm lost, and there's no "after",
no "before"...

and every smile that i do stake
is drowned in our real music,
and then i'm lost, oh how i'm lost
inside your soul...

REFRAIN:
will you please me, won't you please me
like i feel you will?
i am not quite sure what is
your desire, still...

so every breath that i do take
is filled with your sweet laughter,
and then i'm lost, and there's no "after",
no "before"...

and every smile that i do stake
is drowned in our real music,
and then i'm lost, oh how i am lost
in your soul...

God me
Julia kRu Feb 2012
God me
to Heaven, Creator!
guard me for eons -
out there!
'till i come up with a worthy -
a worthy something to give -
give back to
this makeshift Earth!..
to ease
this planet's
lone
pain,
aching
in each creature's
name...

"cardboard princes" - 2015
Julia kRu Mar 2018
*

cardboard princes,
paper castles,
paper thrones.
stained steel stones
hit metal drones -

give off such chime!..

no one sees that
steel and card
burn well and hard
when pressed for time!..

i am becoming quite
impatient
with
negotiations...

i am becoming quite
impatient
with
backstage politics
associations...

my ancient
soul
is losing
toleration!

is solitude forever free?
i don't know - yet...
can you tell me?..

the more you sleep -
the more you wanna...
the more you toil -
the less you wanna...

what's wrong with you?
you're one real lazy poke!
get your *** up, you rogue!
go do some real work!

the more you drink -
the more you wanna;
the more you eat -
the less you wanna...
the more you sing -
the more you wanna...
the more you love -
the less you wanna...

what's wrong with you?
you're one twisted minstrel!
you're one troubled mongrel!
get your *** quick out back -
go clean up your act!

the more you sleep -
the more you wanna...

you ain't no rolling stone...
it seems you're still alone -
for you don't need no thrones!
