Are you still there? I'm calling but all I can hear Are my own words or their echoes There in the silence The pain still escapes But not my attention And now we're divided for good Without any cure I just wanted to ask you Wanted to give you that letter Like I already did In a "meaningless" dream I knew you would have understood If only this last wish Could have been granted In all your voice, your eyes and everything There's so much hidden I don't know Which words are best to start with And now it's even harder Because you're out of sight And out of reach But never out of mind In these devouring hours I so often think it's over And that I only need To make the final cut And in one final poem Spill out all my feelings In a language without words But I guess that I should wait 'till all the cards are down And I cannot do this thing Of which I'm certain That it hurts you more As long as you remember me To make it worse It wouldn't be the first time But maybe just the time That makes it really count So I seek a different answer Not the one that I expect For this hungry silence is a thing Not many can endure for long And maybe in these empty fields of life Another candle still is burning To light another wayBirth sign: Capricorn
