Erich Fried
“What it is

It is madness
says reason
It is what it is
says love
It is unhappiness
says caution
It is nothing but pain
says fear
It has no future
says insight

says love

says pride

says caution
It is impossible
says experience
It is what it is
says love.”
Erich Fried, Es ist was es ist. Liebesgedichte. Angstgedichte. Zorngedichte
