Inspired by thoughts as influenced by the poem by Branko Radičević: Kad Mlidijah Umreti (As I Thought of Dying).
The poem goes like this in my free translation (in the lack of a better one):
"Tree leaves are turning yellow already,
Yellow leaves already falling to the ground,
And never again green leaves
I´ll no longer see"
That's just the first part of it. It goes further in the description of his bad situation and illness then in saying goodbye to things he loved.

The poem is a kinda true story. He died young, at age of 29. With the poem he predicted his death, he was aware of his deadly illness.
The Poem was published some time after his death by his father, the only surviving member of his close family. Mother and brother died some years before him.

Ever since I heard the poem and the story behind it (very long ago) I couldn't but think occasionally about it, especially in autumn.

The Yellow Leaves in short: It's about being aware and thinking about your own mortality. About thinking "will I see green ones again?".
That thinking often leads to thoughts about how we are all small, insignificant, the transience of life, dust in the wind.

Branko Radičević was an influential Serbian poet and the founder of modern Serbian lyric poetry (19th century).

about

Second Escape Serbia

Second Escape is still relatively young music project. By origin, it is the byproduct of “Boyss” and “Boyss-Sound-e-Scapes” by Bojan Boyss.
Second Escape is mostly ambient/experimental and focuses on drones and soundscapes. It's all about experimenting and escaping “normal” music forms and rules, building its own “universe of sounds”. Ambient as a genre totally allows freedom for such experiments.
