Editorial poem

If I will...
By Masha Yurkevich

If I will have wrinkles,
let them be from too much smiling.

If I will have bad vision,
let it be from looking at good for too much.

If I will be starved,
let it be from me feeding all you the good I've had.

If I will have broken bones,
let them be broken because I have taken the pain that would've gone to you.


If I will be weak,
let me be weak from being too strong.

When I will die,
let me die because I have done enough good here.
