‘… I was there in the beginning
And I was the spirit of love
Now I am sober; There is only the hangover
And the memory of love
And only the sorrow
I yearn for happiness, I ask for help, I want mercy
And my love says: Look at me and hear me
Because I am here
Just for that
I am your moon and your moonlight too
I am your flower garden and your water too
I have come all this way, eager for you
Without shoes or shawl
I want you to laugh, to kill all your worries
To love you, to nourish you
Oh sweet bitterness
I will soothe you and heal you
I will bring you roses
I too, have been covered with thorns…’
