Yeah innocence is the wrong Word here probably, the sonata is too
Playful and impish at times though to me to Portray a Deep Sense of
guilt…

Maybe it’s more like a goodbye to viewing the world innocently, coming
to the realization that doing Good things doesnt always work out, and it
crumbles under your Hand, but its done in a Consoling and playful manner
— very melancholic, Full of longing, not so much if guilt i think…

Sehnsucht

(Or in the Sense of „I didnt want to hurt you, but I had to)
