Anastasia

Dedicated to Grand Duchess Anastasia Romanova
killed in 1918 by revolutionaries.

Anastasia, your voice like a song of a lire.
And I heard it in noise of the guns, in a fire
Of Ipatiev House. Oh, dear! Your scream
Was the same when, as children, we jumped into stream
And you were the happiest one in the space
When the splashes fell onto your beautiful face,
On your smile, on your eyes, like a sky, on your hair...
I believe you are always alive. You'll be there
Where people respect and remember the night
You were shot in the cellar. The night when you died.
