“OPOMENA

Čuj, reći ću ti svoju tajnu:
ne ostavljaj me nikad samu
kad neko svira.
Mogu mi se učiniti
duboke i meke
oči neke
sasvim obične.
Može mi se učiniti
da tonem u zvuke,
pa ću ruke
svakom pružiti.
Može mi se učiniti
lepo i slatko
voleti kratko
za jedan dan.
Ili mogu kom reći u tome
času čudesno sjajnu,
predragu mi tajnu
koliko te volim.
O, ne ostavljaj me nikad samu
kad neko svira.
Učiniće mi se: negde u šumi
ponovo sve moje suze teku
kroz samonikle neke česme.
Učiniće mi se: crn leptir jedan
po teškoj vodi krilom šara
što nekad neko reći mi ne sme.
Učiniće mi se: negde kroz tamu
neko peva i gorkim cvetom
krvavog srca u ranu dira.
O, ne ostavljaj me nikad samu,
nikad samu,
kad neko svira.”
― Desanka Maksimović
