Sehnsucht
Let the monsters belong to the absence.
A girl stands alone in unmatched darkness,
Surrounded by the gold she cannot reach.
She asks if she is going to be there forever,
But nothing that exists answers back.
All she can hear now is a distant song,
An out-of-tune melody her mind plays to her.
Always there, rotting away along her ears,
Until the strings finally break apart and rest.
