Beautiful Rebel

 Often as I write poems in English, I actually think of them as lyrics, but I can't play any instrument and neither I sing. And as so many other poems of mine, this has taken quite a while to be finished (months, or even years!). In this final version, I have combined two originally separate ideas. If you read my blog, writings like "Satan loves you!" or "Changes", you should have a pretty good idea of what this could be all about, but I'm not going to explain it - your interpretation is just as good as mine, and I'm not saying I think while I write: rather, it comes from the heart - but I do like to play with words and rhymes, as you may notice... 

You are beautiful rebel
Accused of all evil
ever done by people

But I know who you are -
A bright morning star
Rising in my heart

They tell you, "Satan, be gone!"
I welcome you, my angel, my demon
Heaven or hell, which one I belong?

I'm calling your name, Lucifer!
A fallen angel, lost forever
In hell only love is fire

Bringer of light of reason
Help me to break out of this prison
To rise and reclaim my freedom

Blinded by your light
A day turns to night
You see black, I see white

I'm blessed with a curse
At best it gets worse;
Saved by grace, damned by choise
I raise my voice!

Even if sacrilidge and blashemy
Among men
Were practised by many
In my name
I am not an enemy.

Do you question me?
Are you testing me?
Your dark honesty
Is refreshing to me:
Embracing this alien destiny...

SORROWFUL ROLE OF HUMANITY

 My poem to express some of my deepest feelings I'm nowadays constantly struggling with. - Marko

Sometimes I wish I would just vanish
and you'd never hear from me again
I wish this is all there is
and it all comes to an end.

Voices in your head
never leave you alone
never let you forget
nowhere in this world you feel home.

I find it easy to believe in God
God has a dark sense of humor
but to believe in mankind, that is hard
for mankind is like a tumor.

I wish I could live on the moon
on my own desolate place
marooned
deserted island in the space

Apart from all earthly toil
only watching you from afar
I'd never set my foot back on your soil
I would live among the stars

Separated from the rest of human race
even if I never saw another human face
still this sorrowful role of humanity
tainted and stained soul I have within me.

I don't wish to sound too dismal
as if I was the only one
I would build me a castle of purest crystal
to reflect the light of the sun

So that when you see it shine
you wouldn't feel quite so lonely
Join your loneliness to mine
and it's almost like you know me.

The Beloved (A Poem by Marko)

 I am the Bread of Life, I am the Vine

This is my Body, this is my Blood

I am my Beloved's, and my Beloved is mine

 I will follow you -

Oh Lover of my Soul.

Our Love will flower

as my heart will overflow.

Welcome to the Wedding Feast

Know yourself; Become what you are

Like Wise Men from the East,

we all follow the Star

Mind is a Priest

Heart is an Altar.

 The Bread we break 

and the Cup we share,

through them we partake

of a Mystical Love affair:

Right now I am awake -

Right now I am aware!
