It
has been a new and wonderful experience
to be able to release my thoughts
and my feelings and most of all
the great lack who has always been
my companion
they who know me best are they
who I left behind
because when I felt obligated
I ran away
they who believed that I was arrogant
did not understand that I was shy and afraid
they who never saw me smile or laugh
had no idea that I could not do it
together with normal people
they who saw me crying ain't many
because I would not show
that someone like me were able to be weak
and they never heard me complain either
because I was too tough
they who played along all of the time
were my best and only friends
they who harmed me most
have nothing to fear from me anymore
they who once understood me
I hope that they still remember me a little
they who were filled with fear for me
to them I want to say
is it really true that you were afraid of
me
I have never been specially violent
and I will never become so
unless someone threatens my life
or someone close to me
to you who now shall read
my thoughts wishes and dreams
to you I would say
the best of all is to find yourself
and for that you will need some help
and only your good friends can help you
but first of all
you got to get rid of the bad ones
they who will deny your life to develop
because today starts your travel
against your new self
and the best guidance will be given by me
the reason why I have written in English
is that I felt that it was the only and best
way
to express my self to you
I hope that you are willing to understand
anyway
they who deserve a little praise
they got it here and now
thank you for helping me in a very difficult
time
I hope that we can get together soon
and drink a few glasses of good wine and
laugh and smile
until the sun rises up
to you that forgot me for a long long time
you are all forgiven
at last I would say
everybody has the chance to become free
just start with changing your point of view
I wish you all the best to come
