Day and Night
Day and Night
by André Steinbach
A day,
dispersed in eternity,
the hours are
caught in a blinded mirror.
A fading moon is hiding
in an empty space.
And green cypresses
shiver in the wind.
Willows are caught
by surprise,
and silence is spreading
with the wings of love.
Only tulips and weeds,
but where are the roses?
Set your sail of innocence
in a fading light.
And night is falling,
touching you with silence.
