Do not pretend that you love me

and do not tell me that I am yours

for the lust is long gone

and the trust already took off.

Let’s not pretend there is nothing wrong

the distance has been growing strong

the avoidance has been the food to our souls

and your silence is the truth to this force.

There is nothing more

there is nothing to long for.

Vanished is now

that feeling of wanting never to be apart.

Please do not pretend that you care

these are not longer your feelings to bare

this are the wounds of the one that alone

will face a reality of this forever

that has come to an end.

No. Do not pretend that you love me

and don’t tell me that I am still yours

for the love is hurt

and my soul is gone.
