Analysis of Empty Room

Artur Dobriev 1992 (Saint-Petersburg)



I wish for you to depart, forever so.
Leave behind this room of memories low.

Lost their hues, the years thus pass.
Arranged on shelves, all things at last.

Bound in fate, intertwined.
I won't return to what's defined.

Let volumes burn in my eyes, in flames.
Embers of reason shall dim, their claims.
