That Moment





That moment when it was you and I
laughing in silence, only with eyes,
a moment you were close, but far away.

That moment when the sun was rising,

although it was setting behind
the blue horizon, you were in my mind.


That moment when the autumn blows,
but it is still the hottest summer,
you are so aloof, yet so close.


That moment when you whispered
one, two or an ocean of words,
carried away by the fastest birds.


The moment when the beach
was empty, bare, alone, cold
the day I wasn’t young, but old…

It was just a moment, an illusion.
Just a dream, longing or delusion?
Or I am just losing my mind?

Nostalgia






My eyes are always searching,
to see again this endless blue.
Was it real, was this dream true?


My fingers want to touch again-
the warm and golden sand,
Feel it’s pulse, rhythm, life.


My ears are desperately longing-
to hear the sound of the waves and
a seagull’s cry in the sunny morning!


My lips desire, they breathe alone!
Two lonely rocks amid the vastness,
destined, cursed, lifeless stones.


Life is not colourful but grey,
far from the beach I cherish!
far from the sea I love, far from
the eaves under I used to pray…

Far from you, far away from you

Million Dollar Morning

That was my first thought when I woke up today and looked out of the window. Vitosha* was huddled up like a cat, caressed by its owner - the Sun. It was lovely green, alive, warm, throbbing. It was August, a perfect summer morning! This morning I didn’t feel alive, but living, not functioning, but breathing. I felt like a part of something whole, I felt my little, tiny hope that Paradise is somewhere on Earth is not as absurd as I’ve ever thought. The Sky was blue, but a blue without any trails clouds. The trees have become alive, old ents that were chattering on their ancient, absurd tongue.





Why I thought it was a “million dollar morning?” Maybe because, occasionally, we are capable of touching the essence of life, its meaning. What is lifе's meaning then? Happiness? One moment pleasure? What? It is ridiculous to claim I have understood everything, but can millions buy such a moment, millions symbolizing the material ambition? You just realize how absurd is the connection between happiness and material. It sounds funny in “real” moments like this one. My opinion at least… I don’t have the claim to be the Bible or the Quran or any other measure what is right and what is wrong. I understood the link between this summer morning, the Sun, material, happiness… moments, all about moments - no past, no present, no future, only a flash, one second, one blink, one instant. An instant of bliss, a million dollar moment.




It was not a dream, I wasn’t sleeping either. It was not a mere longing, I just grabbed this morning, the happiness. My day is not going to be gray!

What Is Love If Not




What is love if not,
a gentle kiss and soft
fingers through my chest?

What is love if not the way,
you are dancing in the rain,
or sitting on the sandy bay?

What is love if not the sky,
every August night, dreaming
walking among cicadas’ cry?

Where is Love if not,
soft within my palm-
your hand is warm?

Where is love, where?
I feel it in the wine - sweet
in the bitterness of life!

Love is everywhere, nowhere,
easy, hard to find and feel.
Love is thing you cannot steal...

Утро за милиони

Това беше първата ми мисъл, когато се събудих днес и погледнах през прозореца. Витоша се беше сгушила самодоволно като коте, галено от своя стопанин - Слънцето. Беше чудно зелена, жива, топла, туптяща. Беше идеалната лятна утрин, август е! Да, в тази утрин се почусвтах не жив, а живеещ, не функциониращ, а дишащ, почувствах се част от цялото, почувствах, че малката ми и скромна надеждица Раят да е някъде тук, на Земята, може и да не е толкова абсурдна. Небето си беше синьо, ама какво синьо, необременено от бялото на облаците. Дърветатa бяха оживели, превърнаха се в стари енти, които бърбореха на своя древен, абсурдно звучащ език.

Само един миг...


Защо си помислих точно “утро за милиони”, може би защото в редки моменти, имаме способността да схващаме есенцията на живота, смисъла, а какъв е той? Щастие? Моментна наслада? Какво? Не твърдя, че съм  прозрял всичко, нелепо е, но разбрах едно - милионите, като олицетворение на материалното могат ли да купят такъв миг? Осъзнаваш колко нелепа е корелацията между материално и щастие, наистина смехотворна дори. Поне според мен… не твърдя да съм Библия, Коран или каквато и да е мярка за прав и крив. Разбрах за мен каква е връзката между това лятно утро, слънцето, материалното, щастието… моменти, всичко е моменти - няма минало, няма бъдеще, няма настояще, има само блясък, секунда, момент, един миг. Миг на щастие, миг за милиони…



Не мечтаех, не сънувах, не копнеех, просто грабнах мига, грабнах щастието… денят ми няма да е сив!

Blaze and dove

Dedicated to... you know!



My fingers - a blaze
My eyes - a razor.
Gentle, caressing wind,
the way you move and sing!
Do I deserve this love?
The hope, this white dove?
Inside my heart is warm,
outside is burning storm!
But the candle silent,
spreads the daylight.
Never leave my chest,
stay there, kiss and rest.
Keep the flame alive,
never let my passion die.
Wait, be patient, stand my blaze!
See how purple are the rainy days!
One day these souls will fly,
up like two doves in the sky…

Or you will meet me in the paradise.

The Courage To Dream





The sky is blue  and I’m dreaming.
Tell me - is it true the way I am leading?
Where? Brazil, Jamaica or Sahara?

Stepping the ladder towards the sky?
In my dreams, sometimes I’m so shy!
The bigger they are, the brighter…
to have ones, you must be a  fighter.

Not an easy thing to dream, to fly!
You must have a spunk, always try!
And the birds keep singing high…

I want to open my palm and see
how the little pebbles scatter!
And dive with the wind into the sea.

On the top… the world is one
little colored spot, only mine!

Помниш ли

Я кажи ми, ти помниш ли, връщаш ли се там обратно в онзи чуден свят?

Златно поле, пътечка без край...



А ти помниш ли нощите омайни?
а дните, под сняката, топли, безкрайни.
Как светулките светеха във мрака,
смокините ядяхме под нашата стряха.


Помниш ли пътеките без край,
как се губехме във зеления рай
Откривахме вселени, нови светове,
а как ярхо блестяха всички цветове?


Помниш ли клетвите, вярата, светлината
в очите, силата, куражът във сърцата?
И поточетата бяха млади като нас -
диви и засмяни, порихме златния клас.


Помниш ли, ах, помниш ли небето?
Плисъкът нежен на вълните, морето?
