This is from July 2017 while I was doing an opera program learning about singing in Russian.
Why did you enter my dream, distant beauty,
Like a spitting frying pan.
Pillow lonely.
Vanish midnight!
Your eyes laid back,
Ash colored braids,
Lips proud,
It was all so real
I dreamed,
And like a dream raced off
Like my heart.
Why did you enter my dream, distant beauty,
Together with the dream.
Pillow lonely.
Why did you enter my dream!
