To drink and what to drink?

The poison sparkles in my glass
Like some unknown precious stone –
There’ll be no Future and no Past,
Away they will be blown.

I do not really welcome Death,
Nor do I wish to live,
But in this world there’s nothing left
And nothing to believe.

The Death – how curious a word! –
So short and full of sense.
And now forgive me, oh my Lord –
I’m back to Innocence.

Life after death, if it exists,
Will open to me soon…
But suddenly my heart resists
Against the will of doom.

And now I see the same glass,
But poison seems inane:
My love and happiness will last,
And I prefer champagne.
