Learning Experiences Poem by Jasmina Tacheva

... we learned so much being together -
we found out where the stars live
where the moon hides every morning
how tall the grass is in May
what doves say to each other...
... I learned so much being yours -
I found out where my love lives
where your smile hides every morning
how tall you are next to me
what lovers say to each other...
... you not being mine taught me so much -
I found out where rats die alone
where agony hides every morning
how tall yearning can get when rejected
what little meaning life has without you.
