The Pain
Tonight I am like the trunk of a dry tree
Without feelings.
This night even the moon forgot to go out in the sky.
It's just me.
Then I hear the cry of the cuckoo, which brings me back to my pain.
Tonight, someone I loved left
And now i am here
Like a broken glass
(In my country the cuckoo is known as the bird that warns of loss. according to the legend, a young girl turned into a cuckoo after learning about the death of her btothers. Since then she is calling and crying for them)
