It was a long time ago
I have almost forgotten my drerde
But it was there then
In front of me
My dream
And then the wall rose
Rose slowly
Slowly
Between me and my dream
Rose until it touched the sky
The wall
Shadow
I am black
I lie down in the shadow.
No longer the light of my dream before me,
Above me
Only the thick wall
Only the shadow
My hands!
My dark hands!
Break through the wall!
Find my dream!
Help me to shatter this darkness,
To smash this night,
To break this shadow
Into a thousand lights of sun,
Into a thousand whirling' dreams
Of sun!
