Of you I have a kind of knowledge
that I still do keep safe
that never can disappear from my heart,
with time its still there,
...
For years she did cling
to the knowledge
that someone does truly love her
and silently and faithful she did live
...
(after Heinrich Heine)
More beautiful than any flower
you are fragile in your heart,
...
This world does not deserve you,
nor will it be
the place where,
I to earth let them lay you.
...
Where for our love I have got great hope
while a moment becomes full of power
that acts transitory during a single hour,
where all of my life is in destiny's scope,
...
My love, it was on a sunny early spring day
that you did call, on the phone and did hurt me
and fluttering outside a myriad of birds did play,
...
'Wherever we are, we will be together today,
and together we will look in the evening sky,
and together we will remember
the morning of February 24.
...
(for Annelize)
I met you on a bright hot summer day,
your smile was radiant; your eyes did gleam,
...
How can I catch in a single poem
the scenery that I see in your eyes,
the light that radiates in them,
the starry look that they radiate?
...
