Константин Воскресенский Private Bliss – Likes Some Peace…

From the second collection of poems "In Jest or Seriously” (Russian: В шутку ли всерьёз).

Dedicated to Mikhail Prezhennikov and Elena Mishina (Russian: Михаил Преженников и Еленa Мишинa).

In English (interpretation by Elizaveta Suboch and author):
Private bliss – likes some peace
Outside any with
Many words and at least,
Feelings hide in a mist.

It is hard to admit
Sailing close to the wind;
My poor mind and me split –
Is it love or defeat?

I will hug you so close –
Take your hand not to froze:
"I do not, God, compose –
I've the love overdose.”

You're my reason to live
Like in Eden. In brief,
You're my breath. Do believe –
I'm alive while I breathe.
