Poem: One last thing...

People seek peace
But they still go to war
People seek love
But they can still hate
Capable of everything we are
And our soul will never rest
Until we have tried it all
Until in the last day of our life
We remember that we are alive
And there is one last thing...

Poem: Everything

Running free

Laughing

While people somewhere die

While someone suffers at another place

Happiness and Pain

Life and Death

I see them as opposites

It tales a whole life to see through them

And realize they are everything...

Poem: (death is nigh…)

An enriched environment fires up our synapses.
But everything started from nothing.
Everything came from One.

Is One boring?
Or the most exciting thing that can ever be?

Imagine a world full of excitement.
Synapses fired.
A world of information and experiences.

Live your life to the fullest.
And weep.
For death is nigh.

Who will listen to you in such a place?
Who cares for exciting things in a cosmos full of exciting things?
In a world of nothingness everything is exciting!

Still, I believe I am missing something.
Oh, God, I am so thrilled...

A seagull

Flying to eat

A fish

Death at sea

Watching with a b**r

(Missing the meaning)

Right before the midday sleep...

The moon will soon come along
And the darkness will fall
All hope will still be there though
Between the mist of loved ones long gone

Poem: Quarry of bad things

A life full of pain
Full of sadness
Now the vesper is nigh
Sitting alone
Candles lit
Soon I will go to sleep
In peace, I will think
And death will help me dig
In this quarry of bad things
To discover diamonds of happiness,
To find emeralds of love
That they will shine brighter than ever
When the Sun comes up.

Dead or Alive? What do you prefer?
A question so easy to answer
That's making wise people cry
(Why is the bright sun hiding in plain sight?)
