The price for Love
"I won’t turn back”
It echoed deep in trenches
She didn’t ask him to turn back
She wanted him to be free
She wanted him to have what he desired the most
He said he loved her
She knew he loves her
He called her precious
She knew it was a word that meant nothing
As he part his way
He whispered
It’s unfortunate that we couldn’t have our love
Pain is what we are given for the love for each other
Savor it my darling
Use it to burn your soul to light the world a bit
Learn to live with the pain my love
She watched him walk away
She whispered
I know how to live with the pain my love
It’s unfortunate that we didn’t fight for our love
Pain is what we are given for the love for each other
But my darling
Mine burns my soul from inside out
In these deep trenches
It doesn’t light the world
It doesn’t keep me warm
It is nothing but a price I paid for loving you
I do not mind
I do not mind
As to feel love as I feel itself is worthy of it all
She sat down
In her pale blue dress
Long curly hair
Barefoot
For eternity in the coldness of the trenches
With
Nothing but the memories he gave her
The price for love

It’s very very very early hours of morning. Sleep is not my friend today. She, the girl in pale blue dress from ocean side, is in my mind. While writing that poem I couldn't help keep looking at this painting. It has everything. It speaks very silently, very subtly.
