The way time emptied you
Ani Shahverdyan 1989 (Yerevan)
Drink it till the end,
until you reach the bottom…
Do you see the broken hopes that drowned there?
Turned into small pieces of pink pearls…
You want to believe they can still spread the moonlight
that used to keep you warm through the heavy nights,
there was a time when you at least had hope…
Empty all the glasses
the way
time
emptied you…
