LOVE

Sofas creak
I'm here with you.
We got the romance
and you'll be done.

You were so afraid
To love me,
you resisted 
all day long

I kissed
your lips
I numbered
All your skirts

They happened to be
only one
and then the passion
happened

But in the next hour
I got bored
And covered you
by me

I got bored
to embrace you - 
and so with courage
i started to push you aside

You turn away
I stop
You rouse yourself
I sleep

And later in the morning
i look at you:

Powder lost
Eye closed

So i respite in passion
and embrace you
and then again in horror
Sofa's trembling

But now it was
Not love!
It was just blood
In walk in me

It leaves
in shine of day
You look so gentle
At me

Just day ago
I loved so much
but bonds were broken
and I forgot about you

Love is something
Not for me
She must be
Saint!

***
1927
