Only A Past

This riddle won’t dissolve

For the maze is too dense

But what’s there more to solve

When a mind loses sense

Lost in time, in space

There goes my lost defense

What faded yesterday

Praises again a last romance

Let it last stirring sea

One more drink is for my fears

Let is last stirring sea

Seven suns will rise with thee

Let is last stirring sea

One more drink is for my tears

Let is last stirring sea

Seven suns will rise with thee

He who has entered by this sorrow’s door

Is neither dead nor living any more

Nothing can touch me now, except the cold

Of whitening years that slowly make youth old

Hunger, that makes the body faint, one thought

That ends all memory for the future, nought

My future ended yesterday, I have

Only a past, on this side of the grave

Nothing can touch me now, except the cold

Of whitening years that slowly make youth old
