Only


There is no “only” in my mind
- no only go to the left or go to the right.
There’s no “only” in my mind
- no only to do something wrong or to do something right.

There is no “only” in my words
- no only I could use to say: Please stay.
There is no “only” in my words
- no only I would use to wish and pray.

There is no “only” in my eyes
- no only, so you could read and see.
There is no “only” in my eyes
- no only, so that you just should say: Yes, I agree.

There is no “only” in my moves
- no only that leads me up this specific road.
There is no “only” in my moves
- no only that lets me not thinking of what happens abroad.

There is no “only” in my simple, little world
- not only one thought, not only one dream.
There is no “only” in this simple, big, round world
- not only one truth, not only one reason to scream.

Only when I sit here: thinking, feeling, writing
- I see my own truth, but don’t understand,
.why.
I just sit here: thinking, feeling, only writing
- listening to your play, the play of anybody’s hand.
