 <\/p>\n

The moon is hanging like a fruit<\/p>\n

forgotten in an autumn\u2019s garden<\/p>\n

and wakes the dream-life with a hoot<\/p>\n

of all that in a dream will happen.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I see the brightest elevation,<\/p>\n

of my first love, forever dawning<\/p>\n

like the hope for revelation<\/p>\n

like the sadness of my mourning.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

And hands extending and unfolded<\/p>\n

that deeply want and yet cannot<\/p>\n

warm up the coldest heart unmolded<\/p>\n

forever turned away from God.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I hear the prideful declarations<\/p>\n

of my own tired voiceless spirit<\/p>\n

that un-recalling, calls impatient<\/p>\n

obliviously dimming in it<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

one pair of reminiscing eyes<\/p>\n

bathed in a golden wine\u2019s sweet waters<\/p>\n

And my dear love, how it resigns<\/p>\n

and like a sound will soon pass over.<\/p>\n

DER MOND STEHT AUFGEH\u00c4NGT<\/strong> WIE OBST…<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Der Mond steht aufgeh\u00e4ngt wie Obst<\/p>\n

Vergessen im herbstlichen Garten<\/p>\n

Er weckt das Leben auf, das strotzt<\/p>\n

vor das, was uns steht in den Karten.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Ich sehe den heiligsten Aufstieg<\/p>\n

der ersten Liebe rot aufgehend<\/p>\n

wie Hoffnung auf Leben und Sieg<\/p>\n

wie unsere Trennung bevorstehend.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Und zweier H\u00e4nde ausgestreckt<\/p>\n

die wollen, und jedoch nicht k\u00f6nnen<\/p>\n

das kalte Herz mit Hass bedeckt<\/p>\n

zu w\u00e4rmen ohne Gottes Sonne.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Ich h\u00f6r\u2019 die affektierten Worte<\/p>\n

der meinen Seele stummer Stimme<\/p>\n

vergessend schreie ich in Orte<\/p>\n

und l\u00f6se mich auf in der Stille.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Ein paar zwei Augen wie versonnen<\/p>\n

gebadet im goldigen Wein<\/p>\n

und meine Liebe ist verloren,<\/p>\n

sie wird mich lassen so allein.<\/p>\n
