Jeton Kelmendi, Belgium\/Kosovo<\/strong><\/p>\n

LOVE IN WAR TIME<\/strong><\/p>\n

Sometimes I want them to happen
\nThese things
\nDifferently
\nFor example, a heavy fog fell on me,
\nAnd a border was easily
\nCrossed \u2014
\nTo pass there first of all
\nWhere a few months ago
\nI saw a girl
\nWith curly hair,
\nOnly saw her \u2014
\nAnd to dream later on, while
\nFalling in love.<\/p>\n

At the end
\nIt is war and we don\u2019t
\nknow the future
\nEvery day fighting with death
\nThese stories that
\nSomeone or whomever
\nFell for freedom,
\nOr other news,
\nSuch as the enemy
\nWas destroyed,
\nThese are daily routines.
\nPerhaps
\nTo share with someone<\/p>\n

That he desires love
\nDuring war time,
\nSomeone will think you are stupid
\nBut even in the fiercest fights
\nA soldier will never stop thinking about love
\nI have seen it in myself.<\/p>\n

In time of war
\nGod knows
\nHow the end will come,
\nPerhaps
\nNo time has space for love \u2014
\nTime tolls,
\nBut what if everyone planted
\nDeath
\nWho would harvest
\nLove?<\/p>\n

A poet thinks
\nthat the greatest loves
\nAre born in war time.
\nPerhaps,
\nPerhaps \u2014 exceeding the imagination
\nOf a bible story,
\nOr
\nEven the most illustrated stories
\nOf Lorca and Hemingway.
\nSimply
\nLove is another war,<\/p>\n

It\u2019s an infinite war
\nEven the longest war
\nLonger than any other.
\nBut weapons are
\nSomething else:
\nHeart, Soul and Sex.<\/p>\n

I came for myself
\nAnd went
\nRight to the center of stage.
\nThere is war.
\nAre you looking at it, day by day
\nLife is becoming even more boring:
\nThis is how it started
\nMy mind confused me,
\nAnd with happiness we were ready
\nFor a little more love.<\/p>\n

Is this a dream or anti-dream;
\nNot sure
\nIf someone will ask,
\nToday \u2014
\nBut, surprisingly,
\nIt happened.
\n99 times, I have been able to die
\nAll 99.
\nWithout war,
\nHow can love begin ?<\/p>\n

It cannot be imagined.
\nThere is love, and war.<\/p>\n

Late night
\nThe moon has forgotten
\nTo come outside,
\nA soldier returns, departs
\nFor other front lines;
\nWhen there is love during war time
\nWar continues\u2026
\nThis is a soldier of a soldier.<\/p>\n
