The poem

Kada bi u nekom Paralelnom univerzumu Postojao ti, Ja bih te pronašla Dodirnula bih ti ruku Pogledala direktno u oči Da osetiš Glad, bes, tugu, želju. 2 miliona ili 6 meseci, Nema tu neke razlike. Tada ne bi oklevao. Istetovirao bi mi sve Pećinske crteže Po koži.

In English

If in some parallel universe you existed, I would find you I would touch your hand Look you straight in the eyes So that you feel Hunger, rage, grief, desire. Two million years or six months, there is no real difference. Then you would not hesitate. You would tattoo on me all The cave drawings Onto my skin.
