Relenting Truth
Every time we hurry past each other
We hit and tear ourselves on impact
And we feel the pain of each other’s wings
We were embraced in unclean, impure arms
Because in our loneliness we did not know any better
The moment we connect, eternity will awaken
I long for it
Exposed in a flickering instant that flew by too fast
I cannot reach anything alone
These mere wishes and fading words
Cannot get us anywhere by themselves
Though I fixed my eyes right on them
I have still lost sight of the stars
But their light remains, and no one can steal it
The light of our existence is confirmed by our lips
It is dazzling from the emotions that are bottled up inside us
Is it love that lies ahead, or will everything break apart?
It bewilders me
Intertwined in this heat, wanting to speak the truth
Who do I protect them from?
This feeling you wanted so badly once
If it is there
This feeling I wanted so badly once
It lies in you
