Cruelty








It pains me to hear

about your desire

as I am almost certain

that you will do nothing 

to put out the fire.


Terribly cruel they are -

The things you say to me.



Yes, I admit,

you could well say the same

of what I write for you.

I also provoke your lust

as if you were not tied down

by loyalty and trust.

 


Well, the suffering we inflict

upon each other -

this cruelty we live by today -

is becoming too hard to bare,

too strong to endure.


Especially considering that this malady,

this evil, long-lasting spell

is so easy to cure.
