Description

The storm here is not about the weather - it is a memory of war, fear, and sirens that echo through the centuries. Between gunshots and prayers, a stubborn song is born: gentle, almost lullaby-like, and yet full of pain. Death flashes nearby, like a neighboring shadow, but the main thing in the lines is not fear, but love, which still breaks out. It's like singing through tears: the voice trembles, but it is precisely this that prevents the world from falling completely silent.
