The one we cannot have
We want
the one
we cannot have
We want the one
that will make us sad
drive us mad
We want
the one
Who we have to chase
instead
the one
who stays
We want
the one
that gives us butterflies
our familiar highs
the one
we fall for
instead of
one
who does not
keep score
we want
the one
where we feel the struggle
pinching our hearts
spinning our heads
uncertainty is
the pavement
we cannot mend
we bend
for the one
that we want
but should not be with
for the highs
cannot remain
and the lows
drives us insane
we burn down
in our created flames
If we had just
looked around
there were
people near
whom would have been dear
soothed our soul
but how were we suppose
to know?
we have learned
from younger years
to replay
the story
unfound glory
of being
wanted and accepted
now we fill
that hole
the gap
the lack
by thinking they
will set things right
till we finally understand
only you
can
Then, the ones you’ve chased
disappear
and the tune
within you
soothes
your soul
to be your own
and be free
(oct23)
Why are you here
Why are you here?
as a fear
I hold on so tight
but we fight
left on our own
before I was born
you rose
to protect me
from the neglect
a wound
I could not yet
carry on my own
no proud eyes
nourished my grounds
indifference was
my own crown
nothing, I see now
that I accomplished
would’ve been enough
So I turned inward
to you and we
created a world
where I felt free
Reality does not
exist here
So i can pretend
to not bend
I can let go
of having to act
be someone
and then someone again
I shapeshift
like there is no end
to receive attention
to be chosen
to be special
as a child
in an adult disguise
anyone
who is starving
feasts on crumbs
I collect them
cone by one
Instead of making
my own bread
to live of that
but what one does not know
one fears
I have cried too many tears
to remain here
Our hole won’t seal
through easy appeal
nor will control
protect our sense
of self that requires
a safe ground
to grow as it wants
with no wires
It kept us safe
and connected
to those who neglected
to grow up
and be
on our own
Now is the time
to get yourselves known
To drop the masks
and see who we are
and why we are not free
to reach our furthest star
Our heart is in the right place
but has hardened
over time
so please
let’s be kind
(oct23)
Tug of war
I distract myself
I wish you would not
From not becoming a master
I wish you forgot
For mastery is to be feared
It would benefit us if steered
I snicker at our tries
Oh i could just cry
I shall never reach success
I wish we could change
I can not bear it
You are insane
For I do not see myself beyond the limit
We strangle ourselves
I wish you would accept
I wish you would give up
I am doing this for our best
You are such a pest
We should stay where we are
We could go so far
We can‘t do anything
We deserve so much more
I don‘t want to open that door
The last song
Despite it all
The last bird will
sing with the rising sun
Even if it is the last
Of its kind
No response
It will sing
Over the cars
Breath the smog
And sing
Like it has never sung before
Until the creature, falls
Lies on the concrete floor
We just walk by
as if nothing happened
Like we have lost no sound
We will pay our dues
Glide
I want to live
I want to be
But I am stuck in my ways
Longing to be free
The corset of my childhood‘
Shapes how I grow
How I move
And the things that I know
I may look intakt
I have arms, legs
And a head
Internally
I feel silly
Fighting the images
Bestowed upon me
Like a sponge
I had no choice
Sucked up my parents
internal voice
As if this wasn‘t enough
Shaped by their point of view
No crossing their line
Stand up straight
Obey and don‘t misbehave
Thinking all was my fault,
And never you
I carry these voices
Deep inside of me
Facing the adult life
I scream
Set me free
Wanting to lift off
But how can I fly
When all I have
Is the skeleton of the wings
Not reaching the sky
The scales are missing
which would lift me off the ground
So I walk as far as I can
And watch others fly
Collecting the scales
Fallen off their wings
And sow them onto mine
Hoping that one day
I could at least
glide
no title
Drawn towards you
I find myself
Questioning
How I cannot
Let go of you
For I feel my inner birds
Calling upon me to go
Towards you
The bird in the cage
That must be freed
By being courageous
A virtue it sees in you
Another bird in a cage
That wants to show its wings
And fly and hear its own name
The cage can only be unlocked
By mimicking your say
Another is the creative one
That sings when it is near you the loudest
Freeing this one requires
To break from the shackles
And fly next to you
The creative bird you have
These cages
Only open
Once I let go of the threat
And be like you
Instead
Not to become who you are
But use the melodies of your birds
To open the cages that hurt
Subtle dislike
I want to wake up
And hear the birds chirp
and sing
Not a dozen cars
Reminding me of our sins
The sound of birds
Such a beautiful moment
Of natural spring
Of nature that sings
What use is the noise of a car
So loud and dirty
Polluting and giving us scars
Reputing that sound
Of human machines
It is shear nothing
In comparison
To nature
My hearts shade
My hearts shade is pink
Drenched from whitness
Cultivated within
With mechanical hands
Some don’t stand a chance
The redness of life
Swallowed by everything in
Sight
No space for truth
Or delight
My hearts shade is pink
For I am shun from it all
Strung to the parade
Of the modern call
To believe and serve
The worst of kind
The redness of life
Pumps blood through the veins
It is as clear as day
That we are all the same
My hearts shade is pink
Taught to hold my tongue
And look away
Consumed by the white cleaness
Night and day
My hearts shade turned white
Stopped beating with life
I belong to the dead
I am a empty zombie
Dictated by the head
The hearts shade should be dark red
Pulsing and breathing
With every beings heart beat
We are born red
modern society bleached it white
Protect your red hearts
With all your power and might
Loving you
Loving you
Was like walking
On thin ice
with no shoes
What i gave to you
Fell right through
Into nothing
Loving you
Made it impossible to move
Always feeling blue
Every step
Was a potential crack
A sound I attune to
Loving you was like having
Ice crystals
growing from beneath the feet
Covering me
Sealing me
Freezing me
Loving you
Ment that winter never ends
One lingered on the thin ice
Forever
If I don’t change
no title
our being is our home
The gue that holds us together
We name it love
Lost are we now
Stripped from our being
Our home
Divided
And distracted
Broken and
Discarded
We do not exist for us
We are here for the companies
And the data
Our own creation
Turns against us
Everything is,
Because we are lost
And alone,
Made to believe
We are on our own
But we are a part of the human cell
And love does exist
We must just persist
no title
The thing is
Not too add more false greens
And to finally reduce cars and meat
Not to cover the problem or avoiding its core
Where is everyone?
Always working towards what is to come
Sunk deep im the internets scum
Where is everyone?
With no time im their hands
Rushing and cussing
female wisdom
Historical amnesia
On female wisdom
Hunted in the middle ages
Burned on stages
Labled as witches
Betrayed by both sexes
For docrtines manifest in all
Where are the philosophers,
Quote them just as easily
As the common names
Where is the female wisdom
Hidden and not portrait
Love pierces
Love pierces
Slowly
It pierces a wall
That protects you
From all
Or so you belief
Sometimes
I wish it would just shrink
So small
It would disappear
Though i would lose
My sense of fear
Time would be timeless
Without a heart
We live in moments
If love were dead
We wouldnt be present
As watching loved ones
Smile or be
Life without love
Could not show me these
Intense meaning
Of being here
Intuned
Knowing it is precious
And once the moment is over
It is gone
Never to be lived again
no title
Society is not made
For you to bloom
To be yourself
You’d be a waste
If you cannot be indulged
If you live by your own morals
Led by love and goodwill
Not the cheap and stenched
Industrial thrill
You would not let yourself
Be told who you are
And where in the chain you stand
To bow down
And listen to their demands
You can nourish your being
With nature and feeling
For seeing only is
To welcome your other soul
That laughs and grows
Like branches and roots
To reach the stars
And dive deep into the unknown
Courage would steer your way
You are a light to yourself
Forget who you are and who you were
Discover to rediscover and see
What hides under the cover
Of the self that was not yours
To choose
We all have a persona
To hide the bruise
Of not being able
To live as ourselves
Because society
Made us
Belief
We are someone
But nobody else
no title
If I lower the wall
That i kept to high
So tight
If roots break through
I would not stop crying
For years
And the tears continue
As pain and sorrow
Roams on earth
People have gone mad
Insane
The banality of evil
Not only on a single name
Blind obedience
Dull within
Our humanity
Is bathing in blood
The horrors show
Heavens wont help us out
No escape
Where is the crowd?
Think we must
And feel just the same
So that we can
finally change
Some say
Some say i am too much
Or that i couldnt care less
Overwhelmed or not really blessed
Can i be right when i am wrong
Is it delight
Am I this strong?
I run through the night
You’d lay in the sun
Carry all scars
Like you had none
It was your best move
To say it out loud
Felt my shackles fall
To the ground
no title
This outer puppet
Is so divine
Can climb over
The shackles
Of thy wound
But it is
A layer of skin
Thin
A cover
To not discover
The world
Behind this wall
But thy eyes
Have holes
Covered only
By a invisible sheet
Let’s everything in
What the skin
Cannot prevent
And bend
It let’s you inside
The inner world
Touching a string
Leading to the core
So if you glance
Into my eyes
Long enough
I will shift and shove
Break the glance
To escape
Me in you
From discovering
What is true
What my skin hides
For having to sit
In this moment of being watched
Is like feeling my skin
Being pierced and cut
I hurry
Cannot stop thinking
My heart and my eyes
Are blinking
Away
No
I should stay
You glance feels like
The pressure of the ocean
Weighing on me
All i want is to pick up a cover
That will hide me from you
So i can rest again
And not chose you
no title
how often you cross my mind
I cannot count
Too many time
Not a decent amount
Too often for me
You see
That is the reason
Why you remain
Annoyed at myself
For longing your name
To cross my lips
For bliss
To cross the thresh hold
Of your door
To see your eyes
Look into mine
I know
I will smile
I keep myself
Far away
Reroute and take longer walks
To prevent the chance
Of crossing with you
For I know
My armour will drop
And i’d long for it all
Inducing myself in you
Till I forget
Wake up the next morning
With you in my head
The cycle begins
Again
And all i am longing
Is for it to end
But i am denying myself
To let myself be
To understand
This pulsing need
Like a moth
To a flame
I fly into you
Knowing i will burn
And not return
I yearn
I want you
Again and again
But i cannot be with you
There are boundaries
That I hold up high
Age is a big difference
Blinded and binded
By society
I care
About you
I really do
But my heart
Broke too often
For it to see through
Layers of
Am i afraid to live?
Is it something
That exists?
To scared to feel the pure emotions
And standing with you
There is something in me
That tears us in two
no title
Good thing
We are not able
To speak with words
With animals
Because if we did
We would make them feel
Worthless and powerless
Just like us
It is agood thing
That the universal „language“
Does not consist of words
But of love
And love
Is a state of being
Actions and energy
No words
Needed
no title
Most of us
Do not know what we like
Conditioned by the outside
To decide for us
What is wrong and right
So you believe you chose
Someone for delight
But what you may not realise
Is that you chose
Based on what you’ve been told
Now you are too old
To ask yourself why
So you stop and standby
In your own life
Until you die
Maybe with the last breath
You cry
Do we know
What it feels like
To want to die for something
To give ones life to safe another
Equally important
To stop the machine
Of the greedy, dead prone mind
To step infont of a driving car
To save a passing squirrel
To save the last tree
To live in ones own values
Driven by humanity
To stop madness
Enable for maybe
Others to be free
But we have learned to
Look away
And say
Hey,
It is what it is
And make way
For the companies
And diggers
Choppers
And rippers
Tearing life out of the soil
For oil
That will run out
Either we perish due to
The pollution
Of the death we have caused
Because we have no more
Crops or nutrients at all
As the insects died
The ocean is dead
We will join them
Try not to bet
no title
I don’t receive a message
Asking if i am okay
By a certain someone
We all crave
I do not ask someone
If a red or a blue
Would go better with maroon.
I lie in bed with books and my phone
Some may think i am pitiful alone
Well
I am
On my own
But what others fail to see
Are all the other nights i’ve had
In a shared bed
Were i cried and died
Inside
Stuck in a fight
Try to fall asleep
during those nights
The days where I did not grow
And my heart felt sorrow
For i started to vanish
Under his eyes
And mine
No, those nights and days
You don’t see
But if i’d told you
You would’t really care
As long as i have a partner
All is fair
As it does not make you
Question your relationship
Just keep on going
Because it is the way
Disney and our history
Made us be
Made us long
For wretching love songs
But if we were being honest
Most of us don’t really have a clue
Nor know the truth that simmers
And lingers
Inside of you
Blinded by society
You lose your humanity
Oh it is easier following a script
And playing a role
Than stepping outside the box
Where your true colours show
I breath in peace
In my own bed
Yes, of course
I get sad
But not because i miss a human being near
But i’d wish i’d had a cat
Oh that would be it,
my dear
no title
to the men who believe they love women
You truly don’t
What you love
Is using them
For your gain
Your fantasy
It is your name
You want to hear
You want yourself
Through the body of another
You do not care
Really
About her
You do as you please
Not observing
Or building trust
Just guided by lust
You do not love women
Never say that again
Stop lying to yourself
And playing pretend
no title
It is not uncommon
That when I
Sleep with a man
It is my voice
That has to say no
No
To sleeping without protection
So I can leave without fear
We undress and get closer
Why do I feel you too near
Are you fucking kidding me?
Did you just try
To pass me by?
To slip it in?
Even though
I said „No“?
I again
Have to push my body away
To keep it safe
What do i do now?
Since you can’t have it your fucking way
Fuck you
You ignorant and egotistical fool
You see me as a tool?
I believe in respect and trust
I place it over lust
But apparently
That thought is naive
One would think
In 2023
People would know
What a No means
Unfortunately I have been proven wrong
As it is not an uncommon thing
And you wonder why we are fed up
Why I literally do not want to bother
Spare myself this shit
I can do it better by myself
I know I come
Than with someone
Who can’t deal with
Wearing a condom
Boundaries
Boundaries
I did not know
What that means
Having them
Seems so obscene
Never able to build them
Because they were always taken down
Even by force
No sign of remorse
I learned to walk through life
Without that shield
Taken advantage
Gave myself away
Over and over
Even if it threatend my life
I learned to survive
Became numb inside
Had to silence the anger
Enable to exist
Fake the bliss
I would give you my all
Oh i learned how to only say yes
Despite
my body screaming no
I could not let go
Confused by this game
Of never being enough
And always played
No matter what
Could place my hand
On the stove
And not feel the burn
I have disassociated
Myself in turn
My hand would reach almost a shade of black
Till my system kicks in and pulls the hand back
Confused by the sudden severe pain
Looking down on my hand
Burned and almost dead
The top skin
Peeling off
Exposing raw flesh
In agony I cry
Why?! Why?!
I did not understand
That I do not and should not
Leave my hand on for so long
For after one second
A persons hand would go
What does this tell me about my past?
and what does my future hold?
sparkly wine
I did not see
The hook in the glas
The wine was too red
Too fine
Sweet and sparkly
It was mine
You knew how to move
Slither into my gaze
I was amazed
I returned more often
Enjoyed the attention
From you
I wondered
Who of us
Is the better player
Between us two
I was in lust
For you
And you wanted me too
Exchanges of notes
And a napkin kiss
It was the late spring night
Where we unite
It was pleasure pure
The thrill and my climax for sure
A night to remember
Little did i know
You played my heart
Picked me out
From the start
As i picked you
To lick my wounds
You hooked me tight
With the compliments
That i disliked
Spotted my weakness
I am sure
You played this game before
Longing to be held by love
I take what i can
I felt unsure and weird
Did not know what to think
If you are just pampering me
And then sink in
Claim me
But i did not stay
This is a game for you
and for me
I told you
I cannot be true
You tried to cross the line
Far too many times
For me to still respect you
I am done
And so are you
I crave your attention
I wish you would
See me
But you dont
You just „want“ me
For yourself
Not interested in my pain
I am addicted
To not being loved
I seek it over and over again
One person
Worst than the other
When will i have enough…
no title
Just like Hensel and Gretel
I was left out
Send out of the possibility
Of being loved and wanted
I seemed to have been
A problem from the start
I walk through the forest
Naked
Without a shield
Nothing to protect
Me from the predators
Who lure around
Found a house
Made out of candy
Substitute
My lonely soul
Was a trap
Captured by a man
Who lured me to him
I did not understand
Why i was walking into the same traps
Over and over again
But nobody thought me
How to withstand
I am waiting
For the night
And then the day
Led astray
Too many times
I sleep at bay
I cry silent tears
And fall from my fears
I am waiting
To leave the dormant state
The wall
the wall
between us two
keeps me safe
away
from you
because
If i’d
let the boundaries
go
I am scared
of what it will
show
I sit across you
a table
space
between us both
keeps the distance
between us two
you have seen
the depth
of my soul
the ancient tears
flowing
out of my scars
I look at you
knowing
my heart
is longing
as I always do
for you see,
kind and
surprise
my egos eyes
but
the ring on your finger
keeps the frame
I create
a fantasy
causing and giving
me bliss
and pain
no title
My heart is strong
and tender
big enough
to hold
every shade of
love
no title
i am a piano
and i have only
learned to play
the white keys
of my self
missing the
black melody
what a shame
Just be
You say
„just be“
i try my best
to see
what you mean
I struggle to
sit and not
please
afraid
of not being
enough
It will come
through
scared to fail
this „task“
Just be
how?
tell me
for I was
never allowed
to be –
was changed
and altered
and I continue
doing this the same
made to function
but went insane
made to be quiet
and bear anything
despite my tears
and cries
I internally died
replaced myself
with an outer shell
that bears this
without emotions
protecting me
not to let the
pain get in
so i shut it all out
and walk through life
half alive
eager to survive
staying stuck in
this skin
Just „to be“
I wish
maybe
we will see
no title
You don’t see
even though
you have eyes
you don’t hear
despite your ears
You don’t speak
with your heart
You don’t touch
even though
you are covered
in skin
…
no title
honest souls
are like unkraut
they will always
be there
despite
being stripped
from the very beginning
through education
hurtful words
and absorbed fear
we are still hear
In search for the truth
we’d give our life
the purpose of art
kindles our flame
to survive
this insane place
follow their light
what would happen
what would happen
if you paused
and transformed it
into your life
imagine
your soul
unfold
to let in
what you
kept out
to embrace
your space
hear your hearts
beat
inward and out
no title
you are running
towards your grave
where you will
realise
what you have done
no title
I wonder why
I could not touch the sky
stuck on the ground
I look around
I see others
soaring up high
with glorious wings
but there are only
a few
and they are out of reach
sometimes a scale
falls down
I collect each
carefully piecing
together wings
for my own
that have been
shredded
and picked
telling me
I have more than enough
the skeleton of
my wings are
cracked to
broken by others
who have two scars
on their back
but some of us
keep on mending
and pretending
that one day
I will have
enough
of these scales
and continue
my tale
what is love
when I look at you
my heart is the size of two
it expands beyond you too
it is a energy from within
having been nourished by the self
with kind and cherishing
words and care
for the body and soul
love has no limits
it is not fragmented
it is pure
the dosage is always the same
infinitely a cure
it sees without eyes
cares with no disguise
love is a stream
flows from within
no damms
or artificial lakes
is a movement
in every single way
Love knows no
distance or time
Love is in dust
and in stars
Love is letting
things be
their truest self
so that we can all
breath
love is in the roach
and the whale in the sea
love equals life
so set yourself free
no title
where can I go
within the limits
of a mile
that has not yet
been polluted
by the human cry
where nature
is the only
sound I hear
even if we
belong to the same sphere
where nature
roams and
puts me back
into my place
with grace
to stop
and to embrace
to listen and
feel
so that i can heal
