Rainy Day

The melancholic, cold rain makes me sad.

In the days of loud silence,

rain always called on you.

Your way into my thoughts and tears.

*

Color of lead on the sky; everything is grey.

The blue is in your eyes only.

Come along and listen with me

to the drops dripping down the window.

Like once upon a time down to our curls,

while in love and smiling,

we kissing each other under the clouds.

*

Your head is on my heart.

I am silently touched by your skin.

The gentle warmth of voice.

Your hands on my face heal everything.

*

Heavens Weltschmerz for all sad loves.

Maybe spring will bring something new.

New love and joy.

*

Piano music is somewhere in the distance.

A full circle day is approaching.

Announcement of the golden days in Marrakech.

With flower petals on the bed

and the view of the sunny oasis day.
