the fact that i'm no longer the same age as the protagonists of novels and films i once connected to is so heartbreaking. there was a time when I looked forward to turning their age. i did. and i also outgrew them. i continue to age, but they don't; never will. the immortality of fiction is beautiful, but cruel.

i really don't want to mess this one up
this one is good and nice and respectful. please please please don't mess this up i tell myself. but dangerous thoughts of comparison creep at the edge of my mind.
i don't know how to be loved this way

Vorhang zur seite
Da unten sind Menschen
Menschen die nicht mehr Menschen sind
Zombies?
Geister?
Leblose mit ein wenig Leben
Sie bauen ein Grüst
Sie kommen rein
Warum wir?
Wie kann das sein?
Sie schlagen gegen das Fenster
Wir rennen runter
Am besten raus
Aufgewacht

oh how i long to fall in love again ,
to find that effortless smile , the heart on
high , to feel like everything is right in the world
because i love someone & they love me back .
& all these sweet songs will feel ripped from
my life , & the sun will take my face for his
because all there is is light , light , warmth ,
everglow , this deep radiance of love
everywhere . oh god , will you do this for me ?
allow me love once more , the luck -
to find someone i cannot bear to be apart from ,
to find inseparableness , a presence to
look forward to , each & every day .

Maybe he really just thought you didn’t have that much in common. And maybe you really didn’t. That’s ok. There’s someone out there who you won’t have to try to find things in common with. And maybe timing really did have a lot to do with it. And maybe one day it will be the right time for him and you won’t want it anymore. That’s good. There’s someone out there who will want you always, regardless of time or place. And maybe everything he said was a lie or maybe it really was true, but there’s someone out there who won’t ever make you wonder that. Someone is out there who won’t ever leave you unsure or insecure or wondering. There’s someone out there who is better in every single way.

In meinen Ohren das piepen.
Lang und andauernd
Sie meinte wir hätten uns fast geküsst
Doch was bringt ein Kuss wenn wir es nicht schaffen
Wenn wir es nicht können
Wenn es einfach nicht passiert
Was bringt ein Kuss?
Du bist da du kommt zu mir und wir reden lachen
Und dann bist du weg
Für den ganzen abend
Bis zum Abschied
Und langsam denke ich
Will ich das?
Will ich dich?
Oder ist es jetzt egal?
Bist du auch nur ein Mensch?

Unter den Kirschen
An der Tafel
Du am Ende
Und ich in der Mitte
Zwischen den Menschen die ich liebe
Ohne dich
Wir sehen uns an
Immer und immer wieder
Jedenfalls glaube ich das ich deinen Blick spüre
Vielleicht ist es auch vorbei
Bevor es je begonnen hat
Spätestens im Juli
Weiß ich bescheid
Und bis dahin bleib ich einfach 22
Und warte was der Sommer sagt

You came into the room
With a smiles on your face
It lit up when you saw me
You at the end of the table
Too far to talk
Too far to joke
Playing cards and getting bored
You turn to me and ask
do you wanna play ?
I nod and get up
Now it's the same it's always been
But you are distant
In a way I can't describe
We lose
In the kitchen we joke
Laugh about it all
Is that you flirting ?
Or have I just lost my mind?
We say goodbye and
You say
see you in a few months!
And I say
that doesn't have to be that way
You ask for my number
But I gave it to you already
"You really wanna leave me standing without your number?"
I call myself from your phone
And on the way home
We text
