Du machst mich traurig ‑ hör'

Bin so müde.
Alle Nächte trag' ich dich auf dem Rücken
Auch deine Nacht, die du so schwer umträumst
Hast du mich lieb? Hast du mich lieb?
Ich blies dir arge Wolken von der Stirn und tat ihr blau.
Was tust du mir in meiner Todesstunde?

by Else Lasker-Schüler (1869-1945)
