Still Feelings



You left me
but still we can’t let go
We are just friends now
but damn
I still love you so

Still feelings
so dear that it aches
Did you know it
Back then
We would never break?

Now you come
You stay with me some
Can’t be the same
So weird
What did we do wrong

Still feelings
so dear that it aches
Did you know it
Back then
We would never break?

We did break
and found even more
How can it be
we did
not know this before?

Still feelings
so dear that it aches
Did you know it
Back then
We could never break?

Ludy Bührs

The topics she writes about are very diverse, so are the poetry styles she applies. As a Dutch translator and poet, having lived in Cambodia's capital city Phnom Penh for 2.5 years, in 2008 she published "Op de ruïnes van een rijk" (On the Ruins of an Empire) ISBN 978-90-8834-483-1 with 60 poems based on her experiences there. In 2007 she received a Certificate of Accomplishment as one of The Best Poems and Poets of 2007 issued by poetry.com and the International Library of Poetry for her poem Choked Truth, her own translation of "Verstikte waarheid", one of the poems in the book. Born in 1956, she still works as an independent translator, translating from English into Dutch. more…
