The Crossroads of Life
written by: Benjamin Skomorac
If you ever find yourself at the crossroads of living people,
reluctant sun,
grouchy hopes,
and molded dreams,
you will find the quiet melody of birds
played on gray records
that will spin
in their enlightened enchantments.
Try to give up completely
without stakes and without compensation,
in desire for
a sense of peace.
When you are alone in front of the wall
with hope dangerously cut into it,
same as you walk on the steppes
of the indelible traces of the music
of those same birds, only from a new record.
I was born in 1996. I finished elementary school as well as Technical High School in Zenica with great success, with a number of honors after graduation, after that I enrolled in the Faculty of Philosophy, University of Zenica, Department of B / h / s Language and Literature. In addition to studying language and literature, I also write short forms of texts, prose and poems. I currently live in Zenica (BiH), a professor of Bosnian language and literature. So far my poems have been published in the collections of Trinity from Gradište (Croatia), Sindjelic's Cagar fire (Serbia), Pannonian seagull (Serbia), Carpe Diem (Bosnia and Herzegovina), Drina literary meetings (Bosnia and Herzegovina), in the magazine International Times and many other.
