Chaugrelsch: Tomb I
Known since children
We took upon each other
As friends, we grew
Separated by birth, only in mother
No father should we
Ever call the same
Yet a family of friends
Is what you would say
It was late
When we fell in love
I say we,
Like it was the both of us
You love me
as a brother does to another
but it is you
Whom I want
as my lover
She may try to hold you
Like I sooner would
But never could her passion
Match the fire in my heart
You don’t know our love
You can’t think it
To you I am forever
But only as your friend
Then it must rely to me
To capture what’s mine
To take your soul
And warm it in my hearth
No longer will she touch you
No more shall you kiss
Unless it is for me
That you rest upon the lips
If the boy in me
Shall not win your love
Than the man in I
Shall steal away yours
And hide her
Never to be found
Until your back in my home
Right where you belong
In my dreams,
is the place where we are together
Only in my dreams
Do I have such power
To make you stay with me
Or to make all others fade
Buried below my boards
Never would they have
A piece of my lover
