today from yesterday’s point of view
This End Will Be the Last Beginning
You were injured
but I died that day
Since that moment I struggle
to get back to life
For the part that was fading before the ridicule finished me off
was the one essence I never wanted to lose
But maybe this time I know where to look,
where to start the journey that will fit the pieces or find the new ones
I still wonder how a man can lose his way like this
There is a wish for a closure that removed itself from this world
This parallel universe is out of order
and I am now closer to entropy
I wonder if entanglement can be broken,
because I never was welcome there,
but nobody wanted to let me go either
I know where it leads but I wonder which will be the end of this…
There is nothing more dangerous than asking the right questions.

…the first kiss was the most special thing
Dear poets
where have you gone?
Once you were many
and if not in word
than in action at least
Once, you were dreamers too
You never gave up
on love to be true
Not even in despair
did you stop believing
now all of you are gone
I cannot stop grieving
She was young and jaded
Fairytales were never true
Real life is truly better
when a fight gets you through
With my hand in yours
no farewell in sight
let me tell you, my darling
we have always gotten through the nights
The best romance is created in your heart
if you know this too, we will never part
Not in a circle, but still never-ending
If you get what I’m feeling
we will never have to be pretending
Just truth and love
while we’re fighting on our side
Take my life, thanks for yours
and further it is, our stride
Once poets wrote about love that could take it all
Now it’s just about: “He doesn’t like the White Stripes y’all!”
When this noise would just pass for a minute
we could finally leave the lives of the critics
And in the past, the first kiss was the most special thing!
Wishlist of a Lost Generation
In these nights we all wish
For arms to hold us and warmth to stay with us
During these days we wish
To have a smile kiss our eyes to give us hope
All these weeks we wish we could
Not just pass a person but hold their hand for a moment
While the months pass we wish to
Gain the meaning that lifts our hearts
All these years we wish
For loyal love to be our constant
It is all hidden
In the simple things
I wish you would listen to the quiet sound that seeks your ear
Please see through this static of the air that surrounds you
Maybe one day you will know that you have to look for what you wish for
Where it is waiting for you
And maybe in some moment
You will understand
What this truly means

Writer’s block or meditation…that is the question…
—(yourfiction) - The Quintessence of Silence
My dearest friends, because I have been told by some I should make this track available, here it is. Enjoy, breathe…
Three steps and seven times
When your feet leave footprints like stars I ask myself why we aren’t still
the constellation we once were
brightest in all the eyes of people who found hope in our movements
across the skies of dreamers and idealists
When glances are caught in a moment
and a touch is spreading its wings to let you fly
I wonder if you ever felt the wind in the palm of your hand again
which let’s you know that freedom in this love already makes it worth it
When I drive on these long roads, I feel I will get home soon
There is no truth in losing faith now
But every breath yearns for the next
Even in the moments this life wants to drown me in a bathtub
Quintessential was my favorite word most of the time
and the essential is what I will love until I die
because the opulence they seek is still void of meaning
and lacking is having all that is true - always
There are times when I see you clearer than before
even if I wish to rather know you
There are worlds waiting for us
There are creations to be extended
And when we are no more an exclamation mark
but only the question the seeking ones are asking
Only then will we be the purpose
that came alive by walking in perfect circles
ever expanding
in love
