Tormented Love

I.

You have closed your heart
almost every day

You let me wait
and I cannot reach you

Your lips stay closed
Do you still trust me?

You don’t give me answers
Can I still confide?

I sink to the ground
you don’t reach your hand

Oh, please, let me drink
In this land, once my home.

Without you, our past
Is closed forever

How will that be?

II.

If there were only one wish left
I’d wish your tender care

putting an end to my grief
an end to our fights

I don’t want to suffer forever
Completely consumed by yearning

And cannot understand
Why you do not miss
to see me happy
Knowing that this is you
