OKSANA LUKASZEWYCZ-POLON MIN TIME FORWARD” Solitude in mystery, Autumn and Spring past, A reality mirrored in shadows of memories, Or just a dream, substance of touch. Life — Endlessly spinning a web of consciousness, And in a moment of reality, She appears. Aflame , intense and viable, Yet gentle, for its light has dawned, Her spirit has traversed always in time forward, Into lonely places, A journey... Within a Journey, motionless in distance. For, on the horizon of consciousness, Receeding into silence, She weeps... Withdrawing, ebbing further away... Gone in flood, are waves swelling, and heaving, On into the darkness of the unknown. Times passed with dreamlike slowness, Her voice an echo, an omen... I gradually embrace her fading image, Her tender somber gaze, her silent ways, Wrestling the throes of existance. Mey the flame of her being, Gently permeate into mine and be stilled, Journeying no more... Remembering gaiety, She moves in silence, Dwelling in solitude...
