THE CLIFF OF LIFE
Cvija Peranovic Kojic
BiH/Austria
 
 We parted on the cliff of life,
 in the full brightness of the moon's flame.
 You are leaving, the rivers are carrying you away
the rivers that connected the two young lives.

 Our tears greeted the whisper of dawn,
 and the truth is spreading its sadness...
 Until yesterday we were counting the mornings,
 and today you are not around anymore.

 In the abyss of thoughts and feelings
 we gave birth to winter in our chest.
 We are no longer what we used to be,
 but the memory still hides its charms.
