Analysis of Clover field

Karolina Marszałkowska 1993 (Gdańsk)



A clover, I know you saw it
And you knew
Just how much I longed for it
Even though you just left me
Alone
On this clover field

And it shined there brightly
Where I couldn't take it
Only you'd be able to
And even though you just left me
Left me without any trace of hope

Even though it could have changed everything
It could have enlightened grey life that we lived
Unconsciously
And even so you just left me
Alone
With grass wet from my dew

And a clover is still flowering
And it waits, and believes
That maybe someday...
