I want to say I love you
And need you so very much...

The tides are quiet now
My sea is calm...

Ink won't flow, blank white sheet,
Ungifted artist in urgent need...

Where does this river flow, that has no stream,
Carrying nothing but mere dreams...

You said you were blunt,
And too honest for your own good...

When we were young everything was right
And our future seemed so bright...

Merely little are my means
I have no fortune, only dreams...

Please give him all he needs so he,
Will never need any more but me...

I know youth passes in time
Leaving only waning traces behind...

You were loved by beauty
By wind and fire...

I lost myself somewhere behind,
The mournful rustling of the wind...

You asked me if I loved you,
And I didn't know what to say...
