They said you'd be a broken mess but
For me you've been a mesmerizing
painting
Sprawling, full of details in the most intense colours
And when they said youre confusing to them
To me you've been a puzzle my soul never got tired of solving
Wacker schlägst du, du mutiges Herz erzählst von dem, was dich berührt. In jedem Schlag eine Geschichte von der du der Welt berichtest.
Ich höre dir zu und halte dich warm, bin dir Zuhause und Zuflucht zugleich, wenn du schreist, weinst und lächelst. Auf das ich's nie wieder vergesse.
Brightly colored pictures
Move before my eyes
With no single reaction
Of my heart and my mind
Accompanying voices
I can't quite comprehend
My senses sense sensations
Which don't make any sense
Wenn man uns fragt: "Was macht das Leben?", sagen wir: "Es lebt.".
Zwischen Angst und Hoffnung du kannst hinter die Fassade sehen.
( Lass sie fallen. )
Wir reden angeregt und verhalten über das Was uns bewegt,
Lachen, strahlen vor Glück und weinen gemeinsam Tränen.
Mal schwarz, mal weiß, mal kunterbunt und es ist alles ok.
( Wir sind ok. )
Sometimes I wonder
How long it would take
For people to notice
If I'd went away
Weeks? Months? Years?
And the next thing
afterwards I wonder about
Is the how, the act
And how they'd react
When they'd find me
Laying lifeless in my bed
Like the husk that
I already am
Would they recognize me?
Would they understand?
Some might keep the keys I gave
Some might feel their essence
Some might remember what I said
Some might feel them right away
Some might stay lost on their way
Some might find the door one day

Runner up / Twin poem to:
I don't know who I am,
What to do,
What is real.
This anxiety and depression
Devour me day in, day out.
Every step outside
Is a struggle
A fight against myself
And I hate it, hate myself,
Despise myself.
Isolate even more
So that the world
Won't see my worthless being.
If I had one wish
It would be
That I'd forever
Disappear.
Are u excited to see me?
Do u miss me when I'm gone?
How often do u think about me?
What do u think if u do?
What is it that u see in me?
...And I wonder.
...And I wonder.
Love is free,
a vast, spacious ocean
- free of addiction,
real and in motion
A cleansing dive,
without fear
of drowning
Love is a gift
from within
- safe and calm
A coastal view,
bathed in sunshine
- soothing and warm
Whats a live without passion?
Without a heart full of burning desire?
I'll promise you I'm there
If you promise me the same.
If you can give yourself a chance,
If you can give me a chance,
If you can give us this chance.
I present you my heart,
please take care of it.
I promise to do the same.
I want to feel you again.
I just want you to stay.
