for everyone who has to hide their love. for all those who are persecuted, tortured and murdered because of it. you're not sick and you're not bad, it's the people who haunt youBookRix GmbH & Co. KG81371 Munich

Chapter 1. It´s you who tie up my Soul

To Sara

How you put me in chains with your eyes

as you look at me, so penetrating,

I feel it like a vulcano that slowly

begins to haunt fire,

hot lava waiting to leave

your words are like a snake

laying around my heart

all my thoughts blur into each other,

it doesn't make sense to what I think,

I stop thinking as soon as you get there,

you take all the air to breathe,

although there's enough for both of us

you poison me,

you kill me,

your closeness rubs on me

like the wind that meets a leaf

and carries it miles away

it‘s you who tie up my soul

and only you can free me

only you know my true I,

only with you I feel something,

only with you I'm free and alive

you‘re so strong and so brave

you feel like a soft feather

and I love it when you secretly

observe me in sleep

I never want to leave the bed again,

I want to stay here with you forever

don‘t stop looking at me

Chapter 2. I feel sick because my heart beats so fast

To Sue

I'm constantly surrounded

by all the loud noises,

they disturb me by being alone

you disturb me by being alone,

you knocking on all the time,

and every time you knock on my door,

you also knock on my heart

and it beats so quickly,

until the neck,

I only hear this fast dull blow when

I say "the door is open"

my eyes hurt when I look at you,

I'll blind if I don't close them,

and yet I have to look at you,

I can't stop

I'll jump when you sleep

and I count your breaths,

I hear your breath like

a quiet melody on my ears

It's your face that puts me in chains

I feel sick because my heart beats so fast,

it beats for you,

I will die because it won't be less,

it will kill me if you stay here with me

and it's my own fault for my pain,

I keep letting you in

again everytime

Chapter 3. Through the walls i hear every word spoken

 

Sara

Through the walls,

I hear every word

spoken from you,

no matter how quiet it is,

I feel you through the walls

Yesterday night

I thought we were

lying together like before,

but then I woke up

and you weren't there

I put my hand on my

chest and close my eyes,

I wish you would be

here with me now

Then we would do so

many forbidden things,

oh, yes, I want to do so

much forbidden with you,

things that nobody

takes into their mouths

Because they are indecent

Sue

Are you awake, too?

Or are you sleeping

peacefully and dreaming

of beautiful things?

Whenever I speak,

I hope you can hear me,

maybe you will listen

to your ear at the door

Are you thinking

about me right now?

Or sometime a day?

In the night?

I have so many

dirty thoughts, you too?

Do you share it with me?

My heart beats so

loud that everything drowns out

Are you waiting for me?

Do you know I'm waiting for you?

My legs tremble,

my whole body trembles

when my thoughts revolve around you

I've always been yours,

between all these days and years,

I was yours alone,

I didn't know, maybe

I didn't want to see it

I'm making a fool of myself,

I'm imagining that you hear

what's going on in my head

Sara

I can hear you through the walls,

even now

I sat down on my bed,

I look at the door that separates us

from each other.

I no longer want to be separated from you.

I need you
