Morgenlicht [English translation]

a quiet scent of your skin

still hovers in the room

in the bathroom forgotten shaving kit

next to lipstick and creams

the red wine stain on the tablecloth

lovingly sprinkled with salt

the cold roast in the kitchen

is still - cold

morning light

and the turntable turns empty

as the sun breaks in the window

and your last view has long been away

as in a dream

passed the night with you

you said about it

and it is to be forever

the silver candelabrum

radiates still its candlelight

i sit by myself

with last glass of wine

I haven't taken off the make up yet

and the coffee is still hot

you just told yesterday that you like it

without milk with a lot of sugar

At some point I go into the bathroom then

and pressure from the shaving cream

and the last rest of the coffee

I just tilt -away .
