Another

Kurt Philip Behm

Leave me alone,
I’m deaf to your pleading

Leave me alone,
I can’t feel what you feel

Leave me alone,
my time not for owning

Leave me alone,
our history repealed

Leave me alone,
the bridges are burning

Leave me alone,
the entrance has closed

Leave me alone,
the pages are turning

Leave me alone
—another I’ve chose
