There Are Many, There Are a Few

There are many of those with whom you can go to bed, There are so a few with whom you’d like to wake up, And in the morning to greet the day that’s ahead, With a smile to ask your love if it’s already a sunup. There are many of those with whom you can just live, Drink in the morning coffee, talk and argue or debate, But … there are just a few to whom you can believe And in every moments of life to be always straight. There are so a few with whom you’d like to dream, To watch the stars in the darkness of the night, To be with your loved one in the same stream, And never think who was really wrong or right. There are so a few with whom you can keep silent, Who understands you with a semi glance or a word, Who knows that each heard word is just brilliant As from the mouth of your darling it was said. You so easily meet and… without pain you part, With ease on the heart, just because…, and it is sad that… There are so many of those with whom you can go to bed, There are so a few with whom you would like to wake up. ©Larisa Rzhepishevska (Odessa, Ukraine)
