Lyrics of Life
Poetry is untranslatable, like the whole art.
July 7, 2024
I wish children didn’t die
“I wish children didn’t die.
I wish they would be temporarily elevated to the skies until the war ends.
Then they would return home safe,
and when their parents would ask them: “where were you?”,
they would say: “we were playing in the clouds”.
