Gefangen

Chosen for Diff
Er schaute hin, sie schaute her, Dann schauten Beide fort, erschrocken. Sie glättet, nestelt am Gewand, Er fühlt sein junges Herzblut stocken. Er schaute her, sie schaute hin, Und Purpur flammt auf Beider Wangen. Was sagt ihr Blick? Was sagt sein Blick? Ach, nur ein kleines Wort: "Gefangen!"
