Hopelessness and strangeness surrounded me on all sides Even if my face grinned, my insides shed tears. Every morning the first lights would gouge out my eyes, Waking stone walls would hear my groan. I saw such days when the walls would speak, Bandits' tales would come to life in my eyes. It would embrace my existence, with a treacherous desire The hands of a soft enemy I cannot see Even if ideas like steel remain in the head Hearts always have such weak states: Sometimes I would escape from my own hands, I would find my heart struggling in the mud. I have seen days when the people I called friends curled their lips when I approached them. Those who once never opened their mouths around me Patted my back, gave me advice. Heroes who attacked those they saw unarmed Knocked me down with the lowest kicks. My soul would fall like a statue and shatter into pieces. Those who heard these sounds thought I was laughing. I have seen days when the gun is in my temple I planned to leave the bright world My heart found it pathetic, in my hottest age To flow into voids like a dim star The barrel of the gun heated up on my cheek, My finger didn't want to pull the trigger My inside would cry like an autumn rain Something, however, would connect me to living. Oh my only lover, if I'm alive today Don't think that life is sweet, people are nice, If I stand like a rock on a mountaintop My surroundings are emptier than before I owe it only to you If I exist in the world today: My eyes have become tears whenever I remember you Tears are a river, their troubles continue, Years walk in tears. When my heart beats with the desire to disappear, It was your face that smiled at me as if to say: Live long. When my knees lay tired in a swamp It was your speed that gave strength to my legs. When the sun went down in my teary eyes It was your knees that smoked like a warm nest. When I thought of you, everything would smile. The trees would sing songs, the wind would blow sweetly. Oh my lover, you know what I suffer: I carry a strange heart with a problem. You would understand why I look to faraway places: I live in an uninhabitable world. Don't laugh when you see me struggling and flowing: I'm running to a warm and bright sea. You are my lover, whether you love me or not, I found in you similar to the places I was looking for.
