DIFFERENT

They told me that you, for a while, are hiding in a book

And since then, I've begun to read everything

But the more I read, the more you hide from me

And when I start another book, then you will tell me:

I'm not like those you read about,

You know, you hear them or you've seen them

I'm the one you cringe

In thoughts, in the night... different.

I'm not a dream shopkeeper,

Who is standing under your eyelids

I'm the one to be with you

Like longing, secret, desire... different

A sheet with a sheet you touch my body

Hidden among the covers that protects me from the world

And even if I do not fulfill your dream

Under your little fingers, I have both name and face.

Many read me, few know me, one or two understand,

And they ask me about you

I tell them, how loud I can, that you for me

You're part of the whole.

Unless you call me by name

As no one else can do

I will answer you even though I am a bit distraught

It's me, tell me you, but... different.

MOONLIGHT

On days the wind shakes the windows

I’m just staring

Even on the road with blowing leaves

I’m just mindlessly walking.

Moonlight, this night,

When the light goes away

I’m thinking:

Yeah, I’m a spring for someone, winter for someone,

It’s over for someone, it’s the first time for someone,

I’m happy to someone, I’m soul to someone,

A lullaby to someone, sometimes a noise,

In this moonlight I’ll be with you!

Your birth and your end,

Please lean on me once in a while and rest.

But...

All the things that stayed in your time,

Now hurt me so much.

On a moonlit road,

Even the flower petals were always beautiful.

That’s how much more my longing will grow for you.

This thick night,

After it passes,

Even the cold times will pass us by

Yes, that’s good enough for me.

RAINFALL RHYTHM

Outside, lightning burns a skyline

And tears of rain are unclear

Seconds of melted hours and souls tightened in their hands.

My eyes are covered in the dark

I wrote to you lately, as usual,

And I'm still writing to you on the rainfall rhythm

What kindle my soul, a dazzling flame.

Forgive me, nothing has a motive!

And maybe it all seems chimeric,

But my memories are fierce and calm

Yours filled with bitter regret

Fools on your chess board, what else can I hope?

Black letters fall, burning with the fire of their file

I write to you that you are an unfulfilled dream,

Predicted in a sentence that is my destiny,

The merchant sells me love breaks

On cold February mornings.

I should have drawn my life in your hand

Even if my hand had died,

I would have forgiven myself!

In front of you I would not have written, I would have succumbed.

I would have seen you without blinking, I would have smiled,

But our fate has sewn us, crooked

And it froze us in February with frost

So much so that we no longer feel any happiness

And the crows would have made our hearts a feast

A torture... would have been terribly hurt.

However, I am writing to you now, when my words are fragile.

But they are not

They waved

They suffocated.

I've been looking for them,

I recited them, but they did not come.

I'm trying to write to you tomorrow, under heavy rain drops

And hoping you could come.
