"Does It Hurt?", Hovhannes Grigoryan (translated By Tathev Simonyan)

text id: Does it hurt? - the doctor asked, examining in bewilderment the flower that’d sprouted directly in my heart— a delicate flower with white petals,
text id: which I noticed suddenly one morning, while shaving before the mirror, bare to the waist, cautiously drawing the razor along my cheek.
text id: The flower's pale petals stood out amidst the black hair on my chest, so fragile I feared touching them— lest they fall off…
text id: "At this age and in such winter's chill?" pondered another doctor, who had been called from a distant country, where it's said to be a common occurrence to see people on the streets
text id: completely covered in flowers... "True, but in that country, it's eternal spring, the weather is always rainy and warm," remarked the botanist, and,
text id: inspecting the flower under a magnifying glass, went on, "This is your last flower. You must not let it wither, otherwise, you yourself will wither with it.
text id: So, keep it safe from evil eye and evil thorn, and water it three times a day..." ...And when they all left, and I, once again,
text id: stood before the mirror to finish shaving, I distinctly heard the flower say, "I will wither if love dries up in your heart, and I will die, you hear me?"
text id: the flower's voice grew louder, "and if another flower blooms in your heart, I am warning you, you will die with me,
text id: and we will be buried under the same grave mound— lost amidst the flowers."

"Does it hurt?", Hovhannes Grigoryan (translated by Tathev Simonyan)
