Away through the window
I saw the window open wide
The wind has driven curtains mad
And blackness painted me inside:
Your place was cooling in my bed.
For I could see you walk away;
You lightly stepped above the roofs.
The wind has caused my nerves to sway
Crashing sanity and proofs.
What could I say? You were just gone.
No argument could turn you back
And I was left without a sun,
With teardrops tickling my neck.
How could I wait? I jumped to you
And ran, barefooted through the stars
That cut my feet and burned me through
Planting memories in scars.
Wait for me! Where do you go?
Why do you have to leave this way?
It wasn't hard to let me know.
Have you nothing left to say?
What if I want to go with you?
I do not even ask you where
And all the stones you're going through
Are mine as well. Why don't you share?
You make a step and shadows grow.
A step again and you are free.
It doesn't matter where you go;
You simply go away from me.
