Who are you still trying to deceive now?
Who are you trying to hide?
Am I not a human being?
Made of flesh and blood?
Am I merely a dream?
The soul effusive
Have I no heart?
I have two
Standing shattered by vanity
Tortured in reality
A dark corner of my smile
How clearly my reflection appears
And how contorted I appear to myself
How superficially a mirror paints my face
And how layered it gapes open and speaks:
“If you kiss and think of murder
My second heart – don’t worry
I’ll cover you up daily
Protect you – as you do me
Always only do your duty
Since no-one recognizes and hears you!”
Too stupid that I lay myself open once
Too stupid that I didn’t silently lie
Late however I had to realize
That you, my heart –
Always loved the left
