and finally turn off the light. 😀
Wish you all a fabulous week!!!

Beautiful
It was flowing, vivid, all over my back. Warm. Dribbling. Unceasingly. Waking me up from the tiredness. Waking me up from my own death. Lingering on my spine. Giving me the shivers. Flowing , caressing my skin, and from my skin penetrating inside my tired bones, and from my bones penetrating like an echo in my very soul, echo lingering between the end and beginning of me and between the walls of my solitude… The shower revived me, but it was a fading reminder of your hand. Your hand, lingering in my soul. Your hand, touching decaying flesh but ending in the core of what I used to remember as being me.
Life is a flow. It has been a lot of emotion flooding. It has been a lot of tears drowning me. It has been a lot of paddling alone on a sea of solitude. From the moment I opened my eyes without worries in this world to the point where I was scattered in million painful pieces wondering each if they still belong together or if they should stay forever apart. Life is a flow, just like the time. The time in the sand glass has ended. I have turned it. Now all flows backwards, now my heart fills up with the touch of your longing hand.
In the dark corner of a lost pub we are listening to seagulls screaming on the quay. The waves kiss passionately roaring behind metal bars imagined to keep us safe. An old couple eats supper while we share the taste of light and color. It smells like chocolate brownies and vanilla ice cream. It tastes like heaven and rain, like beads of sweat on your upper lip melted by my lips kissing your very soul. It smells like heaven and you smile beautiful like a rainbow.

七転び八起き – Nana korobi ya oki
If you feel you have no wisdom
Just look around you
Every creature , plant and thing
Will teach you all you need to know.
If you feel that life is breaking you
Learn to flow like the water
Learn to bend like the grass
Learn to whisper like the wind
If you want to be strong
Accept first of all your weaknesses
And be loving and wise.
Fall seven times down, get eight times up.

Train Station
This life has been
The longest waiting time
In the train station.
Countless dramas have unfolded
On the platform in front of my eyes
Yet I have only waited for one train.
I’ve been waiting for you
I’ll catch the only train in which
My heart gets back to me.

Angel
Days come and go
But the reflection of your beauty in my soul
Stays forever.
When my spirit cries
I remember your kindness, angel.
It shines like an ever lasting light in my night.

The Creation
Look at all the beauty around.
This is no evolutionist result,
No universal accident.
One can see the Genius behind
All this infinite wonder.
In the begining God created the Light.

Holding Hand
You’ll hear so many stories about love.
But I say: don’t believe any.
They say love is beautiful,
That it gives butterflies in the stomach,
Love is passion, love is great, love defeats all demons…
Love has many shapes, can come from a child, brother, mother, friend, lover…
I think words mean nothing.
Love should be no lie, no forgotten promise, no fantasy, no dream.
Love is something tangible.
Whoever loves you will not make you cry or suffer
And will never stand the thought of hurting you.
Love is no losing game. It’s just the ever present holding hand.

Music for My Heart
“I’ve made my mistakes
I’ve seen my heart cave in
I’ve got my scars
I’ve been to hell and back again
Born for the blue skies
We’ll survive the rain
Born for the sunrise
We’ll survive the pain
We’re singing…
Hey, you can’t count us out
We’ve been running up against the crowd
Yeah, we’re the Dark Horses
We’re singing…
Wait! It’s not over now
We’ve been down but we’ve never been out
Yeah, we’re the Dark Horses
We found a way out
The city takes everything it can
But outside the crowds
I can feel my lungs again
Born for the blue skies
We’ll survive the rain
Born for the sunrise
We’ll survive the pain
We’re singing…
Hey, you can’t count us out
We’ve been running up against the crowd
Yeah, we’re the Dark Horses
We’re singing…
Wait! It’s not over now
We’ve been down but we’ve never been out
Yeah, we’re the Dark Horses
We’re singing…
Laa la-la-la-la-laa
Laa la-la-la-la-laa
Yeah…
Born for the blue skies, yeah
Born for the blue skies
Born for the sunrise
We’ll survive the pain
We’re singing…
Hey, you can’t count us out
We’ve been running up against the crowd
Yeah, we’re the Dark Horses
We’re singing…
We don’t care what they say
We know we’ll find a way
Yeah, we are the Dark Horses
Yeah!
Laa la-la-la-la-laa
Laa la-la-la-la-laa…
Keep running with the Dark Horses
Hope makes the blood change courses
Keep running with the Dark Horses
Stand up for the Dark Horses
Keep running with the Dark Horses
Hope makes the blood change courses”
