					 Night Train 
				 
				
					
					
					
I spread out my hands like barriers in front of my eyes 
I see little light. My fingers are like rays 
restricting my vision 
 
I  divide the world even more than before  
and see even less from outside: 
caged 
Directionless thoughts roam like predators, hungry for food 
inside my brain 
It's as if I have no reason at all, as if I were a dark night train that can't be stopped. 
 
This is not the way of life I have in mind 
That's what I hope for on this dark day. 
 
Yes, I know it's an escape 
but I think it will be bearable for a while

					 Dying in daylight 
				 
				
					
					
					
I have reached out my hand 
so many times in moments of being 
Each time in the dying of the day 
I  meet the death of your youth  
Your fingers will never be able to touch me 
they are already snapped, beyond repair 
Your soul darkened by black visions 
and you no longer feel me 
Everything I want to share perishes as if by anticipation  
along screaming throats of despair and betrayal 
Would you rather live in the sight of shadow light 
I let you go anyway

					 Frozen tears 
				 
				
					
					
					
There are those moments when an old feeling separates itself from my new spring - like old sucking roots, 
so sparse, so unfeeling, so cool 
a misunderstood negative, how the soul was torn apart, painted in grey and black and white 
 
 Never again will this memory be a loving memory 
Nor will this memory ever be the colour of a summer bouquet 
 
Not even if it is carried by the highest good of indispensable people. 
The recurrent sprout of sudden loneliness has nothing to wish for 
The pain can only be eased if one has once again experienced how the feeling was once raped.

					 I would have liked to be a rose 
				 
				
					
					
					
When life overtakes me through the pain of dying, 
when my joy is rare 
 
When  expectation and hope  
Give way to that which is out of reach 
No longer knowing what to do, I stand so alone, 
my heart turns to stone 
 
I would have so longed for others to flourish through me, 
more than has been given to me 
In a garden of roses glowing in the sun 
 
But it was not to be 
The end turned against me more and more 
Sometimes you could say 
I succumbed to death

					 The anticipation 
				 
				
					
					
					
My window is hidden behind the soft shades of green 
of the forest and the trees 
I can already feel what will come 
 
Of  autumn colours I dream of muted scents that gradually announce that summer is growing old  
I pluck the last of the fruits before nature ceases to grow visible. 
 
And so my thoughts drift out into the field of expectation 
where the parting is so normal 
and the falling of the leaves is possible 
and makes the landing softer.

					 dancing in silhouette 
				 
				
					
					
					
near ferns in my garden, spreading and sprinkling 
like the green-grey fountain in the Plaza del Piedro 
 
I  think, so I think of the lost shadows of the evening  
and contemplate you for a while 
A dreamy being, you are 
 
You dance the silhouette of the swaying of the palm trees 
with a vulnerable smile of subdued pleasure 
 
across the pavement of my deserted love's square a last ray of sunshine sweeps 
and kisses the earth with advancing broad lips 
until it has taken over the whole of the square 
and I am getting lost in you, my love 
 
with my old clarinet, out of date, 
I echo in all the corners, into the dark alleys 
 
This is how I console the bygone day

					 Water 
				 
				
					
					
					
From the parched land I float to the sweet waters 
where the stricken lake is still tinged with the salty colour 
surrounded by transient reeds 
 
my  time there seems wasted  
The current sings 
and kisses left and right the caressing shore 
and whispers softly to the green that waits 
 
The cold loses an opaque membrane, 
it is the sunlight that offers a burst of warmth. 
 
Countless fluttering wings spread the scent 
The scent that grows stronger and stronger towards the distance where dawn awaits me. 
 
I hope that tomorrow you will look at me gently. 
With some tender tears

					 In Pacem From : The Requiem by Julius Dreyfsandt zu Schlamm 
				 
				
					
					
					
 Farewell, my friends who are all gathered around me 
I still feel the warmth of your love 
and take it with me. This all will remain in my heart. 
 
It will encourage the journey to the everlasting 
where the creator will surely be in wait for me 
and the angels, full of spirit and so finely circumscribed 
will soothe your earthly sorrow with their wings of light 
 
I weep once more and touch with my soul 
your great hearts a moment longer 
while the tender peace is already telling me about the silence 
and helping me to shed earthly sorrow 
 
Sing with me the song of the eternal peace 
so that all our tears may be interwoven 
 
Gradually divine joy will be born and revive in you 
 
I may now be on my way and hear the call of the cherubs. 
They want to carry me to the Lord on the palms of their hands. 
For all of you a consoling thought 
Farewell and wait till my return to you

					 Empty boxes 
				 
				
					
					
					
Hear me fill the voids of uneducated shadows that echo off the thickly plastered, blind walls 
 
And the shameless fall of sand and gravel I perceive 
as  the crashing of decapitated words  
 
So many layers over the years become artificial calloused or dust from ancient images 
 
The soul, forced to nudity by the firing of cannons 
that saw deep layers as certainty 
 
The soul that regurgitates the mud in which the rotten poles have performed as a foundation for the pretence of hopeless plays to be performed 
 
I often try to fill these voids with grey dreams 
while my fists pound on empty boxes of hope

					 it is silent 
				 
				
					
					
					
the pure becomes visible in silence 
I do not speak of coldness. I speak of calm in a wordless gesture. 
 
 turbulent currents drift towards the sea where I see a growing confidence rising in the burgeoning bilge 
 
In this silence of rising joy, where sand and water come and go, my soul tells me: Ebb and flow have always carried me.

					 when desire is dying 
				 
				
					
					
					
I would so much like to bind my deepest desire to a chain in my soul 
Or embrace it tightly. and to sing with love songs 
it says so much about suffering on earth 
and  even more about our human existence  
There is so much desire for avoidance of the inescapable loneliness. 
 
I want so much to relive those moments, to count the intimacy, 
but then I am driven on in such a hurry 
In the attempt to cling to dreams, in the attempt to be guided by dreams 
 
When I find the other, the one who knows me and understands me 
I will slowly be aware of what my bond with life is 
The feeling that I have the right to be there will be more and more mature. 
The desire will die. To inherit true love.

					 a gilded lance 
				 
				
					
					
					
icy thoughts often eat away at the past in the conscience. 
It atrophies the, gentle desire. It turns the skin into a shield and sees desire through an unsharpened lens. 
and yet, sometimes very briefly, shines through supposed walls like a gilded lance, shining with pure brilliance. 
For  a moment it makes the feeling quiver  
Only to die, as it were. Cast aside like a missed opportunity.

His chair was empty. It was so nude he sank into it. 
into his world with the silk pillow; down to the wire worn and dilapidated, its seat still held together by two straps, soft with lost lustre 
 
I  feel he is not gone. I smell the scent of his skin, his unwashed hair, and share the sadness of his lost bride, with the tears through the years.  
 
I can still see his smile on his face. His lips curled mischievously and words formed, sometimes spoken in silence. 
 
He's still here. Isn't he?

My celebration of the joy of grapes, the sweet feast along your tendrils 
 
caressing the leaves with the tips of my fingers, while a summer wind witnesses the sound of sighs 
 
my  velvety lady plucks the ripe fruit with delicate elegance  
with delicate elegance she touches my mouth

I lost the future in finding 
 
sought to fill the past to re-bind me my old soul bound 
 
and  promised me golden mountains, dreaming of pure happiness.But the truth above all wanted to terrify me opening my eyes with a compelling pressure  
 
I carry the emptiness under my arms like an invisible encumbered weight, but still take my breath consciously constantly focused on blinding light

With budding vigour she plays the old Stradivarius 
 
When she plays, her strings sound like words with sparkling letters scattered into an aging man's heart. 
The violin, carved from gilded wood, trembles with joy under the fingers of this white lily. She is a girl with a still earthly past. 
The  old master of sound has also been given patience by the Creator: He waits for a miraculous maturation. It is always shrouded in mystery.

how lovely and light my blue butterfly goes. 
she floats fluttering around in my mind, flapping her delicate wings along leaf and flower. 
who will not silently yearn for that. 
when  I see her and give her a smile she feels as it were the joy of a human being. in a silent wink she connects some happiness in an unspoken wish.  
with her sparkling waving gestures she lights up hearts, makes me feel what no one can really explain but lovingly attaches tenderness to the other.

					 Be my bride 
				 
				
					
					
					
be my bride when the night comes and the sun of my eyes descends into my heart 
 
As I descend into the transience of created sorrow, be my companion. 
 place your hand on my shoulder and send me gently into the beloved woods. There the murmur of many souls will carry me 
into the passing cold. 
 
Be my bride, if only for a moment, a beat of eternity, 
Go beyond what was. Carry me to weave. 
 
Through the eyes of the angels the beauty will smile upon me. 
Only then do I feel the greatness. Only then do I know what I am losing. 
Be still for a moment, my bride. Such is life when I ring the bells irrevocably.

					 the anticipation 
				 
				
					
					
					
my window is behind soft green tones of woods and trees. i already have a sense of what is to come. 
I dream of autumn colours, of misty scents that will gradually herald the end of summer. 
I am picking the last fruits. Before nature stops growing. 
So  my thoughts drift to the field of expectation, where farewells are so normal and falling leaves may soften the landing.

					 I no longer cry out 
				 
				
					
					
					
I sometimes pile barren flowers on my field of feeling. 
there was first blind hope to radiant expectation 
like bees rashly sniffing a honeyed bush node. 
in  truth, however, gradually came the rigid image of the acidic desiccation in a silent watercourse.  
words have long since ceased to count as they pile up on shards of broken glass, cutting me into carnal parts, not once, but again and again, again and again and so on of incessant convulsive resistance. 
here I stand aging and see around me the missed opulence, drifting far away in dying fatigue. 
i look back, i can't, it was life that robbed me. 
Even the only reaching hand waved away my longing. 
the indispensable has been crucified. i no longer call. I walk away into nothingness
