they were taken to the grave a long time ago,
they fought for all those who were worth fighting for.
and now they are forgotten and one with the earth
they once fought for.

musk & cedar

there is something in the air.
the smell of musk and cedar wood.
everywhere where the wind carries me,
it is there.
this distinctive scent.
the scent of security and
memories of beautiful days.
it is your scent
that I've learned to love

the suffering

I neither want you to press the like
nor the follow button
I just want you to
give me your attention
Just for a tiny second

150 million children
are orphans
worldwide

821 million people
are undernourished

every 40 seconds
someone
takes his life

In 2017
68,5 million people
were fleeing
a country

every day
7000 mothers
lose their luck,
their baby

Think about those numbers
and be grateful for just a tiny second
if you're not affected

All I want is
you to think about this
only for once
and make every moment count
as if he were the last

I don't want to attack or insult anyone in any way with this poem.
I simply want to make you think.

what the wind told

you hear the whisper of the wind?
you hear it?
what is he telling you?
he tells you to run
'cuz he's getting stronger and stronger
until you'll surrender to him

la femme que j'ai vue

saw her sitting on a bench,
while reading "voyage au bout de la nuit",
a cigarette between her tooth gap
framed by red lipstick,
a bottle of wine next to her,
quietly humming a melody,
her hair wilder than a man's dream,
her fragrance Chanel N°5,
the look in her eyes were longing for the saving shore,
it was raining but she didn't even care,
and so I knew
Je t'admire

la femme que j'ai vue: the woman I saw
"voyage au bout de la nuit": book by Louis-Ferdinand Céline
Je t'admire: I admire you

where all begins

born in 1998
12 months later
walked my first steps
my first word was Momma
my second Dadda

suddenly had a sibling in 2000
had a fantastic childhood so far
played everyday at the playground
at the end of our street
made my first friendship there

went to Elementary School at age 6
sat next to a boy named Jack
learned the ABC and counting to 1000
still had a fantastic childhood

changed to Middle School in 2008
had my first crush on a boy
who was in love with my best friend
cried my eyes out
at that point of time
experienced the last days of being a child
until puberty knocked on my door
had some deep crisis with pimples and oily hair

in 2012
High School waited for me
followed by many ups and downs
got my license
after celebrating my sweet 16
dated my first boyfriend
went to homecoming and prom
broke up with him
'cuz he cheated
sewed the shattered pieces
of my heart together
and got over him
but still had a fantastic youth
at the end
I finally graduated from High School

didn't know what to do now
with my life
rented my own apartment
thinking if I should go to college
earned some money trough
working at "Joe's coffee bar"

as I met him
I fell into the deep
of his blue ocean eyes
I've never recognized
those familiar eyes
I forgot
since I saw him last time
10 years ago

1 year later
we got engaged
and so I married the boy
i sat next to
when I was 6
