A Summer at the End of the Twentieth Century
Beethoven's Piano
That all-consuming silence
during your absence
Of which I have dreamed and
what I feared
That silence is so great
Larger than the sea
Larger than the pale moon
Larger than the Piano of
Beethoven
Beauty knows no time
And can't even break the silence
No matter how loud the sound
Like the engines of
the plane
That took you away from me
br/>In the sky you dissolved
Like a star that falls
But I didn't make a wish
I read
the lines in his hand
They still point always to you
Beethoven's Piano
Silences
Only the scratching needle
Your name in my heart
