In my mother’s language, there’s a poet which is saying:
Human beings are members of a whole,
In creation of one essence and soul
.
.
When I used to fear death,
I didn’t know fear is the acquaintances’ souvenir
And someone, somewhere else was bidding life farewell
Knowing, that death is not the end…
It could be the beginning
A rebirth,
You! Familiar friend!
The most unknown and familiar,
Where did your soul fly in this navy blue sky
And your body turned into a soul to contain a new life
Now you’re gone,
And after your redeeming flight
Your breath brings back my counting breath
I feel like a newborn child,
And I live your every single breath,
You live in me,
And the wallflowers will be
The sign be between the affinity of your being in me.
