Wasteland romance

23.01.24

If I squint hard enough

The Lidl logo becomes a fullmoon

A little bit romantic in the rain

"Welcome to New York"

Nope

Only everyday shit with everyday people

But I love your smile

My one good thing a day

I

Love

Your

Smile

You make me giggle on mediocre days

What hope can I offer?

Loss is inevitable and

You will outlive so many

People that you've loved

There are strings to every

Thing and the kite in your

Chest will tangle in trees

Phone lines, careless hands

You will bruise like a late season

Pear and spend a fair amount of

Time simply trying to

Recover

Still, the morning glories will

Always find a fence to embrace

The willows will whisper with

A lilac breeze and even when

The world is reduced to sticks

And mud and sodden socks

Spring is blooming somewhere

We just have to wait our turn

[wonderingdreamingwriting]

why don’t you read a poem about the sunrise written 5 centuries ago and contemplate the fact that we have been writing about the same sun for centuries upon centuries and then maybe you’ll calm down

Fernweh

14.04.24

"Du hast Fernweh", hast du gesagt

Und du hast natürlich Recht

Aber es scheint mir so falsch

Wo die Welt verrückt geworden

Und es Zuhause warm und sicher ist

Wieso sollte man da weg wollen?

Und ich bin noch genug auf Reisen

Für meine vielen Interviews!

Doch das ist nicht das Gleiche

Wie mit dir unter strahlendendlosem Himmel

Wegzufahren, Abenteuer auf der Zunge

Nun ich bleibe noch, baue das Nest

Die Ferne bleibt mir noch

Doch lieber ist mir deine Nähe

Sure

11.04.24

There are times where I fear human kind

For it, with it, because of it

So full of greed and old sins

Mothers of the mothers used to warn about

And we did come far and invent anew

But did we learn to behave us?

Did we learn not to conquer and control

But regulate and moderate

With everyone in heart and mind?

And we cannot perfect us to flawlessness

But we can sow mindfulness and reap peace

And I speak mostly to myself

Being too tired most days to even try

To connect and listen, because news

Becomes deafening and everyday work

Can be seen as enough input to society

It is and it is not and that in essence

Is human kind for sure

Semicolon

28.02.24

I will never complain that I get older

I will complain that my back hurts

I will complain that the world's gone crazy

Kids do not read enough and politicians are frauds

I will complain that life is hard and pointless sometimes

I will complain about sun or rain or anything

I will complain about the work I love

I will complain about trite details about my perfect lover

I will complain, I do complain, I admit it

But not about turning a year and aging by it

Because I was supposed to die a while ago

And beat that urge to jump; to instead

Have a look if it actually gets better

And with all complaint, it did!

Ever after

25.02.24

Where I have never been

I sang into scottish snow

Looking for an adventure

Not knowing what depth

Time would hold afterwards

Isolation, hurt and restlessness

And more sense of myself

But the biggest adventure

Was our transformational love

Schreibwütig, damals und heute

17.02.24

Halbe Nächte Musik gehört

Und durchgeschrieben

Augen müde, jucken

Aber noch nicht aufhören

Nur noch ein bisschen

Der Morgen ist ein Problem

Für später und der neue Tag

Kommt erst wenn man schläft

Gewälzt von links nach rechts

Die Probleme; Philosophie, Leben und mich

Und es macht leer und etwas doof

Aber am nächsten Morgen

Hat man schon was geschafft

Bevor die Ameisen aufstehen

Und ihr Schaffen beginnen

Was soll man auch sonst tun

Als Klischee des Studenten

Ich wollte Wein trinken und Goethe lesen

Mal tanzen und am Roman arbeiten

Nichts davon in fünf Jahren noch wichtig

Aber genug für Jetzt und das ist schön

Und dann kamen Nachtelefonate

Nachtspaziergänge anti Ausgangssperre

Und deinem Atem lauschen und

Endlich mal selig schlafen; mit Rhythmus

Das ging aber nur dann neben dir

Und spät, lang noch hören vom neuen Album

Und schreiben kann ich immer noch

Nur morgen ist Samstag und es gibt

Kalte Pizza und Küsse zum Frühstück

Perfekte Mischung aus Melancholie

Jägermeister und Cola und Kotze

Lange Erstinächte brauch ich nicht mehr

Aber bin froh, dass es sie gab

A ring

16.02.24

Our time always feels very bound

To a nice now and a potential soon

Every memory is a happy place to go to

Not melancholia of the gone but...

Rather 'yeah that was nice, let's do it again'

Full of trust that more is in stock

Good times past, present, future

An ocean of love knows no

Beginning or end either

Numb

Surprise, surprise

I'm writing again

Still searching

For feeling

Day after valentines

15.02.24

How strange to be warm

Cozy, safe and sound

Exquisitely well fed

And everything in pinkish tone

And somewhere somehow

They die of bombs and heartbreak

Sounds like a The Smiths song

Tempus fugit

15.02.24

-Hello

-... Hello

-Did you not hear my Hello?

Yes I did but it also hit me

That one day

I will not hear it again

Foxes in spring

15.02.24

Hold your nose out

Feel the emergent

It approaches on paws

Inaudible but reaching

New spring, new you

And I am proud

Of us aspiring

And celebrating

Every night with embraces

Grandma

06.02.24

In my dreams I sit

In sunwoven moments

In your old kitchen

Over lunch and happiness

In reality I sit

At the table across from you

And I am not nice

I am sorry about that

I don't know why I hold you

At such a high standard

But that it not true, I know

Because you hold me

At such a high standard

That I feel the pressure

And release defence before

You have spoken a word

Human beings are complex

I would like to make you my hero

And I did have to accept

Somethings do never change

But in good and bad

My dreams are fed by time

Lost and lived and longed-for

And I am ever grateful for time left

Why do we do what we do

06.02.24

What do we fight for

The nice picture and glamorous idea

Or raw and uncut vulnerability

Being human is not nice

Never was never will

And sometimes even pointless

But we give it points

Commas Semicolon

Exclamation points

Me a question mark

In all of it - i believe in hope

You are real

I got to tell myself

Over and over

If you are not near

How come you are real

Fighting my corner

Holding my hand in

Tough times

Health and sickness

Fuck.. yes, you!

You always you

Non sensible

But so much love

Always love, love

Thank you for

Your support, warmth

Just yourself

It took me long

To come back

To been ill and on the run

And turn of one year

But now I feel again

More like myself

I was not lost

Not loveless

Just too much

In a hurry

To wait and see

What do I feel and

What words come to me

Shy like deer

If I try to keep them
