Look at your father's grave.
You loved the father most.
For the day of All Soul's
I'm going to this grave
and I feel like I'll meet you there.
I'm not happy because I know
that the spirit of your father
disappears in you for a long time.
You are the joy that,
just for a moment,
looks like eternity.
Arrogance and lies are for you
as for the patient's cure.
You are like desert sand
on a terrible African storm.
The soul of your mother rules your soul
because you've always been
and you'll stay forever - Abandoned.

Napuštena
Pogledaj u očev grob.
Oca si najviše voljela.
Ja za dan mrtvih
idem na taj grob
i osjećam se kao da
ću tamo tebe sresti.
Ne radujem se jer znam
da odavno u tebi ne
stanuje duh tvoga oca.
Ti si radost koja je
samo trenutak koji
izgleda kao vječnost.
Oholost i laž su za tebe
kao za bolesnika lijek.
Ti si kao pustinjski pijesak
na strašnoj afričkoj oluji.
Dušom ti vlada duh tvoje majke
zato što si uvijek bila
i ostaćeš zauvijek - Napuštena.

Exquisite intricacy of emotions expressed in this poem! Poetically written!
Everything is complicated when it comes to love. I never saw her father, but she asked me to go to her father's grave. I'm just fulfilling the promise, although I will never see she again. Thanks for the words.
