70. Downfall and survival
My love, how can I reach you?
You were here expected long ago,
and suddenly then your arrival was announced,
and I was all on edge like some newborn and trembling deer,
and what an orgy of tremendous feelings and of love!
And then you didn't come.
Exactly everything was perfect,
there was nothing missing in our happiness,
except that you did not appear.
And now, what other end to this most awkward business?
Failure, capital defeat, a lost quest to give up,
just another total fiasco?
No, our friendship conquers all and everything,
in friendship nothing ever can be missing,
it is solid and more pure and valuable than gold,
and this, of course, we can continue building on
whatever happens and forever.
