Stop The Time

Please, stop the time: the life is passing by.
Gone are the years of youth filled with eternal joy.

Please, stop the time before the leaves have turned,
Before the trees have withered.

Please, stop the time whilst soul is craving love,
Whilst hope is still alive!

Please, stop the time before a lie’s exposed,
Before a friend betrays you.

Give back to me the time when I was loved,
And when I trusted you.

Give back to me the time when birds
Were heralding his love!

Please, stop the time, don’t let the heart believe
That it was all a lie!

Please, stop the time, don’t let the memory take in
A friend’s lying eyes!

Please, stop the time, life’s train’s departing
Without me…

by Liana Margiva

(Translated from Russian by Anatol V. Kardiukov)

Stopping time...a concept I'm sure we've all wanted at one point or another. Soul's cravings. Thought-provoking! Best, Elizabeth

When I was 9 years old, now 63, I wanted time to stop and to stay at 9 always. It comes back to me now, and ever since death of husband on 8/17/07 it is more felt than usual. I guess God wanted me to live a longer life and experience 2 marriages and children and all and he has a plan still for my welfare. I trust in him but like this poem and it tells it like it is. Everything oh so true in life today.

I can relate to these sentiments, Liana. Sometimes when I close my eyes it seems I can feel time fly past my face like a breeze. Thank you for sharing this gift. Love and peace to you,

The hope that can be felt in your poem is beautiful and fragile against relentless time. But... how can the train of your own existence leave without you? ;) So many different perceptions of life we can have in a lifetime!

A gentle moan from a hurting and trembling soul caught by the teeth of time that shreds our weak dreams.
Then again...always is another train coming next.
Painfully penned.

Reviewed by . ignis 10/15/2007
These words were written by a spirit who understood the concept no soul has ever put to words. Mr. Kardiukov's versatile perception allowed him to write from a scope that is an asset to the reputed Russian literal tradition and a gift to those who embrace immaculate beauty. Thank you for sharing. I enjoyed being on this page.
