Who are you? And where do you come from? Why do you trespass my gloom-ridden territories And leave those warm, shimmering trails behind? Your queer fragrance seems to rouse these lifeless lilies that loiter about my place Who are you? And What is your mission? Do you seek to taunt me with this deluge of foreign emotions That now poison my lonely haven? 'Merriment' you call it, 'Torture' I insist I'm utterly numbed by such cruel treatment you mete out to me Who are you? And why do you dare? What authenticates your belief That your aura, so odd, will revive this forlorn land? Why do your subtle gestures press so fiercely for an abstraction? 'Love' you say, 'Deceit' I believe Depart from me oh strange one! And leave me to remain in my sunken spiral of abandonment
