Belarusian Teen's Heartfelt Poem Goes Viral

A young Belarusian man, Sanek, recently shared a poignant self-written poem on social media. Titled "Otoydi" (Go Away), the poem expresses a heartfelt desire for someone to leave and never return. The short video, filmed on a porch in Belarus, shows Sanek reading his poem from a notebook. While the video's simplicity and personal nature limit its broader appeal, it offers a glimpse into the emotional experiences of a young person in Belarus. Sanek's words, "Otoydi ty ot menya..." (Go away from me...), resonate with the universal theme of heartbreak and longing for distance.
