1. Talvi
2. Floating Further
Just a silent dream in my loneliness
Laying naked in depths of the deep black ocean
…Of ancient dream…
Eternal silence wrapped around me
Vanishing horizon
Floating further like a memory
Every word is the last word
For the time that’s passing by
The distant islands disappear
Crimson, empty, pierced darkness
Choose between life and death
Stay silently for not to wake
Only pieces of a touch are left
It’s written in the night
…Save me…
Before I’ve drown in darkness
…Inside me…
3. Shroud of Frost
Winter brings us into this place, the corpse on bed is still warm
We are lying side by side, learning more of each other
We’ll learn to give up in time
The weariness of the nights One step and a stop in time
Where the faces are speaking their own language
The fragile containers of life are wondering
Watching each other
At night I hear the bells ringing
In this empty castle
I am listening to the snow
The same wind is blowing everywhere
Winter comes in its time, spits ice into the lakes
Thou are trying to make fire with frozen hands
And wind is whispering with the voice of thy beloved
I wish that thou sleep
Through the forest Over the coldness
To a spring where the water is black and melted
Winter brings us into this place, the corpse on bed is still warm
We are lying side by side, learning more of each other
There is lying a pale maiden
Whose last silent sigh is flowing in the waters
And the wind is tearing the trees apart
All this death is going forwards our deeds
Writes a new poem, recites silently the last words
Now I’m holding my cries until I swelter on it light to walk on
And the ground is snow white
4. Withered Smile
The only thing that’s left of you is your withered smile
The only thing that will be left of me is my head.
The only thing that’s left of you is your withered smile
The only thing that will be left of you is your head.
Naked and loving, I ’m lying upon our remains, my lips on yours
My love for you ain’t a disease, I know it’s so pure.
I make you caress my chest, you make me love dead flesh.
Your rigid members touch my skin, yours is no longer fresh.
The dust on your corpse is covering my burning skin.
My heart is beating for you, but yours is no longer answering.
The only thing that’s left of you is your withered smile.
The only thing that will be left of you is your child.
Slowly, you enter me, you caress me, you embrace me.
Please, love me again…
5. Against the Emptiness
O, thou come from there
Where the night lives
Where the wind is staying
I come from there
Where the stars are hidden
Where the storm’s crying its fury
I come from there
Where the sun wheels
From a great gate
Into the world of morning
I’m holding the worlds
The ages are bending
I’m watching from high
Playing with the movements of continents
Destiny above me
Under me the mountains, oceans
You’re holding the worlds
The ages are bending
You’re watching from high
Playing with the movements of continents
Destiny above thee
Under thee the mountains, oceans
Sorrow of the living
Silence of the dead
Against the emptiness
Where we all are going
Where we all belong.
6. Longer Than Life
Birds black shadow in autumn skies dancing
flying and rounding above the dusk and dark landscape
It wants to die for a while
Not greater may despair become
Only restless moon before the silent night
And shadows hear the birds are gone
Before the departure thou don’t know
Where thou are going
Where you are there thou don’t know
Where thou come from
The silent color of the rain
It’s breaking the emptiness
It did not become the summer to stay
It became autumn longer than life
Long nights
Sleepless and windy doors
Knocking on the last doors
Reminding me
7. Der Todesking
