Poet Introduction
I might appear rather strange to you - I barely post, I write about the dark and appear to be more like this name the website gave me: a strange creature. Please rest assured that I am very much human. I just do what I told you: Writing the rain of life.

I?
Maybe I
Should change
Advice?
Less brave
More nice
Less strong
Ladylike
Less will
More skin
Less thought
More sin
More forget
More coquette
Less suspect
Wear a dress
Take off that cap
Have a purse
Not a bag
Smile more
Cry more
Don’t go for the prize no more
Except for male
Man‘s the prize
Hit surprise
Feel delight
Feel the time
Your time will come
Change your life
Tonight
And wake up new
Should change
Advice?
Less brave
More nice
Less strong
Ladylike
Less will
More skin
Less thought
More sin
More forget
More coquette
Less suspect
Wear a dress
Take off that cap
Have a purse
Not a bag
Smile more
Cry more
Don’t go for the prize no more
Except for male
Man‘s the prize
Hit surprise
Feel delight
Feel the time
Your time will come
Change your life
Tonight
And wake up new

The way I lie
I love the way I lie
I love the way I look you in the eye and say goodbye
I love the way you shout me out, it caught me by surprise
I love the way I “ah damn it, I don’t care, lets go fight”
I love the way we seem to disunite
It was time
I love the way I fuck things up
It is my right
I love the way you call me out but I don’t give a sheit
I love the way I’m shutting down you all in my mind
I love the way I feel excluded when you don’t tell me life
I love the way I passion up when nobody replies
I love the way I “Ah I’m fine” when...
I love the way I look you in the eye and say goodbye
I love the way you shout me out, it caught me by surprise
I love the way I “ah damn it, I don’t care, lets go fight”
I love the way we seem to disunite
It was time
I love the way I fuck things up
It is my right
I love the way you call me out but I don’t give a sheit
I love the way I’m shutting down you all in my mind
I love the way I feel excluded when you don’t tell me life
I love the way I passion up when nobody replies
I love the way I “Ah I’m fine” when...

Drought
"Drought",
it whispers
and its making me frown again
What if...
if I'm my own reason for misery?
What if
Self-egoism, -centered is true for myself?
I am dry
I write instead of being out there with my friends.
I'm scared of sounds
Movements
Them(?)
The thing is, I am over
The Lost Seeker, thinking
about every step on its way it has taken
and
everything it needs to fulfill,
fulfill it,
fulfill...
Fulfill what exactly?
it whispers
and its making me frown again
What if...
if I'm my own reason for misery?
What if
Self-egoism, -centered is true for myself?
I am dry
I write instead of being out there with my friends.
I'm scared of sounds
Movements
Them(?)
The thing is, I am over
The Lost Seeker, thinking
about every step on its way it has taken
and
everything it needs to fulfill,
fulfill it,
fulfill...
Fulfill what exactly?

Away
They will float away
Like boats
My beautiful flowers against the wind
To blooming fields
And open land
Promise I could never give
I am attached but I am not
If I cried, our bond would rot
And get misty stinking old
But I can’t blame
I’d do the same
Story is from where it’s told
Love‘s like a ticking bomb inside your brain
One crack - it all will change
But if you wait until it burns
You might die in its return
So I stand here and insist
Hold them happy, please
Give them love I couldn’t give
Like boats
My beautiful flowers against the wind
To blooming fields
And open land
Promise I could never give
I am attached but I am not
If I cried, our bond would rot
And get misty stinking old
But I can’t blame
I’d do the same
Story is from where it’s told
Love‘s like a ticking bomb inside your brain
One crack - it all will change
But if you wait until it burns
You might die in its return
So I stand here and insist
Hold them happy, please
Give them love I couldn’t give

Candles
I'm lighting candles
To the sound of their laughter
Candles
To their voice on the phone
I'm writing poems
To their silence after
Poems
So I won't feel alone
I'm reading stories
To their real-life living
Stories
Whilst they do what they should
Crying
To the sound of laughter
Crying
Will I ever be understood?
To the sound of their laughter
Candles
To their voice on the phone
I'm writing poems
To their silence after
Poems
So I won't feel alone
I'm reading stories
To their real-life living
Stories
Whilst they do what they should
Crying
To the sound of laughter
Crying
Will I ever be understood?

Lonely
Lonely thinking
Voids and holes
You‘re boring, don’t deserve it to be loved
Lonely sleeping
Lonely soul
Seventeen, how can you still be alone?
Talking, whispers
Stories told
Full of shame standing in the cold
Listening, thinking
Crying after
Wish a kiss, a hug,
Somebody to hold
Voids and holes
You‘re boring, don’t deserve it to be loved
Lonely sleeping
Lonely soul
Seventeen, how can you still be alone?
Talking, whispers
Stories told
Full of shame standing in the cold
Listening, thinking
Crying after
Wish a kiss, a hug,
Somebody to hold

The Sea
Next to the sea means under the water
Drowning in tears of screaming and hate
Feeling the breeze of cold pushing harder
We came here united, will we leave changed?
Higher walls of waves paving the way
Seagulls are lurking to eat what we can’t
The stars are cloudy, the nights are strange
If I would leave now, tell me would you stay?
Drowning in tears of screaming and hate
Feeling the breeze of cold pushing harder
We came here united, will we leave changed?
Higher walls of waves paving the way
Seagulls are lurking to eat what we can’t
The stars are cloudy, the nights are strange
If I would leave now, tell me would you stay?

Patiently he was waiting for the next movement.
Splash
His eyes surveilled the situation until it hit the ground of the sink.
Water
It was the only form of noise reaching the silence in his head. He sat there and waited, waited, waited for the next drop to fall into the sink and light up his clouded mind, interrupt his shocking thoughts and tell him, he’s still alive.
His chest was burning and being hurt by this feeling of falling, of guilt, of hatred and lying.
Of dying.

Home
I don’t feel home today
No actually never
This bittersweet endeavor
To be who I want to be
Stopped by the feelings you’re giving me
I won’t see a light this way
I don’t feel loved
Just misunderstood
No, not misunderstood
If you don’t listen to the words I say
How could you even hear my ways?
This times I’d like giving up
You once said you love me
But I only feel cold
Lies in like everything you told
Strongly pushing me down
You say that you love me but want me to drown
No I don’t want you hug...
No actually never
This bittersweet endeavor
To be who I want to be
Stopped by the feelings you’re giving me
I won’t see a light this way

Poets
Her dad was a poet, at least that’s what he told her.
He said he’d written all the great poems in the world.
My girl, she believed him, she wanted to grow closer.
She started to rhyme all her words.
“Daddy!“, she said, showing him her work,
“It’s loud and tickles and rhymes!”
“Honey“, he answered, undisturbed.
“These poems look so similar to mine.
They’re furios and happy, loud and silent,
I can hear every word that you write.
But honey, you know, that’s not the answer.
You can’t steal all of my rhymes!“

Flowers
On a meadow that I saw them
It was a sunny afternoon
Saw their beauty and was fallen
So unique like stars and moon
It were three of them exactly
And as I started caring for their parts
They smiled at me and grew
So quickly into my heart
The first of them is strong
And wonderful inside
Creative, lovely, smart
Not ignorant but wise
We laugh and sing and swim
Tell us secrets in the night
She’ll remain in my heart forever
A friend that’s always on my side
The second one is sick
But so strong...

Hey Dad.
Hey Dad
I‘m getting five today
And I know that you gonna be there
And I know we‘ll have some fun today
So see you soon when you get here
I love you
Hey Dad
My 10th birthday was cool
Was different with you not being there
I hope we can celebrate soon
We still got some cake to share
I got new toys!
Can we play with them?
I know we‘ll have fun
Tell me, when will you come again?
In how many months?
I miss you
Hey Dad!
Where’s your fucking face?
You send a present, huh?
And you send a...
