Open Wound ~ Otvorena Rana Poem by Jankovic Zoran

Open Wound ~ Otvorena Rana

Rating: 5.0


The gangene that emerged
from unthinking thoughts,
as a sprinkled salt on an open wound,
is a black hole without a bottom;
black as eternal darkness.

When you touch it you will see
it has long felt no pain.
Peace brings her only emptiness
and a dash of broken dreams.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Otvorena rana

Gangena koja je nastala
od nepromišljene misli
kao posuta so na otvorenu ranu,
je crna rupa bez dna;
crna kao vječiti mrak.


Kad je dodirneš vidjećeš
da odavno ne osjeća bol.
Mir joj donosi samo prazninu
i košmarom isprekidani san.
