Gedichte

midnight

I'm standing here by the window
And watch the stars
The moon, the clouds
I feel the wind on my face
Despite this late hour, it is warm and comfortable
In the distance I hear an owl
That heralds the nocturnal hunt
But my thoughts are only about you
I look at the sky one more time
I see a cloud pass by
But this cloud
It seems to be deforming
As fast as I've never seen it before
Suddenly I recognize the new shape
I suddenly recognize you
Your flawless shape
Your eyes
Two shining stars
Two holes in the otherwise perfect replica
The glow penetrates me
Makes me shiver in spite of the warm air
But suddenly I feel a sense of security
I want to take you in my arms
Feel you
Your warmth
Your cheek on my cheek
The owl wakes me up from my thoughts
It flew right in front of my window
A cold breeze passes me because of her
I pull my sweater a little tighter
I look up again
But the apparently deformed cloud has disappeared
I look at the moon
But all I see are your beautiful features
You seem to be smiling at me
You look at me with confidence
This look warms me from within
I would love to take the moon in my hands
Give you a kiss
But I realize it's just the moon
I turn around sadly
I send one last look at the darkness
A shadow flits past the window
I turn around again
But all I see is the owl
What did I expect
You don't know anything about my feelings anyway
With my last look out of the window, a sentence escapes me
I wanted to tell you a long time ago
"You are more important to me than anything else in the world!"
With these words I turn around and go to bed
