Light a Spark in His Heart



Light A Spark In His Heart 


it could never happen
hot summers would give up their place to colourful autumns
I would collect their rustling leaves in October afternoons
in my pocket shells from the distant island
I would tell the fortune from the stars on the Tatra meadow
gossamer threads would have wreathed my memories
if it had not happened




I could never meet you at all
and you wouldn’t look at me even once
but the planets pass their metamorphosis
people cannot defend themselves from feelings
it is beautiful
cruel
hopeful
suddenly
longing has become sweeter than wine

world has become flashed and mighty
although the clouds gathered for the storm
I slept in the garden unconscious
unaware of heavenly archer
in my mind was your face
maybe just by chance
that is you

and if it is not a coincidence
that the shooter did not miss
our story has begun
my God, give me a lot of power now

light a spark in his heart
and mine do not put out yet
let it burn unprotected from the evening wind,
let my hands be strong and his heart clear

we will be walking together for a long time
before we find ourselves
before we understand
that mutuality is a miracle
the only one
that happens to people

tell him to be cautious and careful
never hurt anyone
because than he hurts me most

I know what I feel
his feelings I can only imagine
shut them into correctness
dismiss my desires
surely it will not hurt you
if my thoughts still with you

and yet
I want to thank you Lord  that I can speak and speak in myself
and do not confess to anyone

suddenly
the wind blew leaves on the road
wanderer has put his hat on straight
elves could have been near

I could never meet you at all
a book with a tale could have been save with me forever
but now you have to take care of it
because our hearts will wake up one day

I know that we cannot walk together
we must say goodbye, you can go back
then if you look at me
you will touch my hand for good-bye

world will be flashed and mighty again
you give me a lot of power NOW
and yet
light a spark in my heart
