A BALLAD ABOUT MR. ALMOST AND MS. ALREADY
Mr. Almost loved Ms. Already
he almost did say this to her, but he did not say.
The winter was cold and already passed
by Mr. Almost and Ms. Already.
Ms. Already walked with Mr. Almost
she loved him, already gave her hand to him,
the night was hot, the moon wandered
over Mr. Almost and Ms. Already.
And another spring passed and another autumn ended,
and Mr. Almost saw with a broken heart
how much he lost all the years that he did not say
the word of his love for Ms. Already.
And another year passed, and another one,
and Mrs. Already lay on her bed alone
thinking how it was almost, and already perished,
for Ms. Already and Mr. Almost.
Years passed since, nothing changed.
Mr. Almost loved Ms. Already
he almost did say this to her, but he did not say.
Now it was indeed already a bit too late.
Ms. Almost resided in a small house,
almost even Mr. Almost resided in it,
now no one resides in it
not Ms. Already and not Mr. Almost.
