Kristina Kozina - In The Beginning Of The End

In the beginning of the end,
There was no way.
Just me
And you
And someone else
On a bench,
Not talking.

You asked me
Two years ago:
"Will you come back? "
I kept the quiet and
Went away.

And now you ask me:
"Why came back? "
I feel the moment and just said:
"I wanted to have a home, but now
I am here,
It's not my home
Anymore."

You say:
"You were born and raised here,
It's always been your home,
Your parents, friends and just the man
from the flower corner."
You look,
And said:
"You loved this city,
You loved to walk through the buildings,
You always loved to have some fun with people
from the market."

In my mind,
The city where I was born
A long, long time ago -
Where I was happy and excited,
Where I was a little girl.
Where I was playing with the kids
And loved to live.

But now,
I'm not there.
I'm in an unknown city,
The city where I used to live.
And maybe one day,
I will be free
And feel at home here.

You sit behind me
On the bench.
No words.
Just you
And me
And someone else
In the beginning of the end.\n\nKristina Kozina
