My Problems

My problems have declared war on me!

Their purpose – my destruction.

But I am not the soldier, 

I recognize my fault

and I am handed over to them without fight.

My enemies are not noble.

They will not spare me.

In a gloom of their prison

nothing is visible.

Also nothing is not audible there.

They play a terrible game.

They compress around me like a loop, 

They inform joyfully, that new troubles

Will soon appear for me.

But I have deceived them!

When they departed, I prayed.
