“И защо бе туй цялото блъскане?
За какво - този адски ламтеж?
Думи, думи... До блясък излъскани.
И вървене по въглени пеш.
Колко преходно нещо е славата!
Суетата - димеж и мъгла.
Проститутки и щерки на гаврата,
днес в едни, утре - в други легла...
Не това, не това бе животът ми.
Беше друго, какво - не разбрах.
И се носех, въртян в колелото му,
и насън сякаш цял го живях.
Днес ме гледа, застанал насреща ми,
с моя лик и със мойте очи.
Във едното таи се насмешка,
а пък в другото - капка горчи.
Е, прощавай - му казвам. - Да, гадно бе,
но красиво и сладко, нали?
Що можахме със теб, пооткраднахме,
а пък другото малко боли...
Тъй се гледаме двама. И духа ни
с най-студения вятър светът.
А между ни стърчи стегнат куфарът
и пред нас - най-големият път...”
― Дамян Дамянов, Обади се, любов

“ПОКРУСА

Душата ми вихрушка я обрули...
Защо я пуснах гола и пеша
сред вашите ласкателства и хули?
Защо ви дадох своята душа?

Защо ли като храм ви я отворих,
без да помисля аз, че някой ден
незнайно кой от вас, жестоки хора,
иконите без свян ще окраде...

Не съжалявам, че е пуст олтарът
и че вратите са разбити с бяс,
но съжалявам, че със свойта вяра
днес няма где да се помоля аз...

Душата ми обрулена и мъртва
пустее без икони и олтар...
Във нея аз ви пуснах като в църква,
а трябваше да сложа катинар!”

“Създадох те от обич и мъгла.
Невидим образ на мираж най-видим.
Ела! Строши съня ми и ела!
Жадувам двама с тебе да отидем
далече - в оня, приказния свят,
желан от памтивека от душите -
единствен рай сред дългия ни ад.
Любов се казва той.
И в него скрити
Адам и Ева, в дъното му там,
ездата на живота вечно гонят
и от галопа им свещен без свян
една след друга куп звезди се ронят.
Мечта ли си? Душа ли или плът?
Не зная. Ала знам, че кон с копита
от лудо нетърпение за път
готов е да побегне и през смърт,
орисан да я смъкне от звездите.”

“ЛЮБОВ

Каква магия си, каква!
С какво необяснимо чудо
владееш цялото това
човечество? Върховна лудост
или върховна мъдрост си,
щом в своя порив, в свойта жажда
ти можеш да го покосиш,
тъй както можеш да го раждаш?
Чрез тебе съществува то.
Чрез теб родено, с теб умира.
Чрез теб душата му - листо
се носи тъжно из всемира.
И този цял всемир тъй тих,
и туй листо, и този вятър
ведно събрани - туй си ти!
Да, ти, едничката, която
си вред и всякаква - кълбо
от грешна плът и дух безплътен.
Чрез теб, безсмъртнице Любов,
дори смъртта е миг безсмъртен.”

“ЕСЕН

Опърпано-клонесто-жълта
сиромахкиня с палто,
от друг подарено, нахълтва
при мен през стъклото. А то
прилича на рамка картинна,
в която от тъжни бои
стои тя - една просякиня
и жълти монетки брои.
Ах, есен - предишна любима
и днешна старица! Във теб
аз виждам пристъпваща зима
с крачета на босо дете,
изгубено в белите дебри
на първия падащ бял сняг!
Ах, есен...
И мръква ноември.
Уж светещ, а цял в идещ мрак.”

“Изповед

Объркан цял във хаоса световен,
троша столетни истини с глава.
Пред смъртоносна цев с най-смъртно слово
заставам. И ме няма след това.
Със своите ръце и ум, и воля,
добър и зъл, такъв и онакъв,
руша, градя - в една душица гола
събрал и Бог, и сатана... И кръв
ми капе от гръдта, кръв нечестива,
оставяща в мен капки тъмнина.
Добре, че имам друга, та измива
поне донейде тъмните петна.
Обърквам се в това кълбо всевечно,
във гордости, вини, с които аз
едва ли имам нещо общо вече,
но си ги нося във наследство... В час,
в самотен час, сам в хаоса световен,
за да си махна всичката беда,
заключвам се. И сред дима отровен
си пускам за причастие Бетовен.
Тъй само грешник пий света вода.”

“People where you live," the little prince said, "grow five thousand roses in one garden... yet they don't find what they're looking for...

They don't find it," I answered.

And yet what they're looking for could be found in a single rose, or a little water..."

Of course," I answered.

And the little prince added, "But eyes are blind. You have to look with the heart.”

“I won't telephone him. I'll never telephone him again as long as I live. He'll rot in hell, before I'll call him up. You don't have to give me strength, God; I have it myself. If he wanted me, he could get me. He knows where I am. He knows I'm waiting here. He's so sure of me, so sure. I wonder why they hate you, as soon as they are sure of you.”

“I cannot have a man who is afraid of everything, I don't have the time to soothe insecurities and fears, I cannot have a man who is standing on a stone by a creek, watching for the fish to swim by and every time he sees a fish he says "Oh look, this fish scares me, I wonder what this fish means, this fish might mean- this, or this fish might mean- that" for God's sake, they are just fish, and they don't mean anything! Such a sad thing, so many fine, strong men standing on top of little stones, pointing at fish all the time! Such a waste! Such a waste of time! I can only have a man who will leap into the water, not minding the damn fish and whatever other little things that scare him. I need to have someone who is braver than me; if I am a pirate, he has to be the pirate Captain, if I am a pirate Captain he has to be the flying dragon.”

“I've always loved strong women, which is lucky for me because once you're over about twenty-five there is no other kind. Women blow my mind. The stuff that routinely gets done to them would make most men curl up and die, but women turn to steel and keep on coming. Any man who claims he's not into strong women is fooling himself mindless; he's into strong women who know how to pout prettily and put on baby voices, and who will end up keeping his balls in her makeup bags.”

“When you find a guy who calls you beautiful instead of hot, who calls you back when you hang up on him, who will stand in front of you when other’s cast stones, or will stay awake just to watch you sleep, who wants to show you off to the world when you are in sweats, who will hold your hand when your sick, who thinks your pretty without makeup, the one who turns to his friends and say, ‘that’s her’, the one that would bear your rejection because losing you means losing his will to live, who kisses you when you screw up, watches the stars and names one for you and will hold and rock that baby for hours so you can sleep…..you marry him all over again.”
