You have no idea how much hurts
every poet's soul hides ...
No, you don't know nor will you ever know,
because you think poetry is something
what is only read and listened to.
You have no idea what it's like
when you smile and tears choke you,
when sobs are heard from the soul.
What is just a verse to you
for the poet, it is proof of the suffering of all.
For you and many others
there is a significant poetic award,
you have no idea it's just
confirmation for a sick soul.
What you call deserved recognition
for the poet, it is another proof
to have him less and less.
Every word in some verse
a sigh is one noteworthy,
and every poem with tears written
a piece of the poet's heart was torn off.
Poets are unhappy people
those who walk the world with sorrow
but know, they love the strongest and purest.
I know very well how it hurts
because I am one of those
who the verses write these and that
and thus heals the pains of the soul ...
I am one of you, of those
who strongly and purely know to love.
