by Tora zu Eulenburg

Sturmflut
Language: German (Deutsch) 
Verlangend dehntest du dich aus nach allem,
was dir Natur und Menschenwerk entgegenstellt.
Du presst es an dein schäumend Herz
und reisst es jauchzend mit dir fort 
und hälst es fest, bis es erstirbt 
in deinem glutdurchströmten Hauch 
erbarmungsloser Leidenschaft.

Ich schau dich an so sehnsuchtsmüde.
Ein Schrei entquillt der kranken Brust.
Ich liebe dich! Lass mich vergehen 
in deinem heissen Sturmeskuss!
