A tragedy need not have blood and death;
it’s enough that it all be filled with that majestic sadness
that is the pleasure of tragedy.

Throughout my lifetime…
Throughout my lifetime I’ve left pieces of my heart here and there.
And now, there’s almost barely enough to stay alive.
But I force a smile,
knowing that my ambition far exceeded my talent.
Finally
All this walking around.
Forward, backward.
Circles, yes, most times in circles.
Mile after mile.
After some time i found the way.
A straight line.
A long one.
I started running.
My shoes start to wear out.
I wonder how long they will last.
It’s been some time I’ve been running around.
Following the path in front of me.
Occasionally tried to break through the walls beside me.
Just to look down and continue on the path in front of me.
Left with some scratches on me.
Every now and then i find some water.
Even some food i managed to catch.
Just enough to stay alive.
Just enough to keep me on the track.
Only some miles more.
I try to tell myself.
Looking down this path.
Starring into an endless horizon.
Never asked how far i have to go.
Never dared to ask why i have to take this path.
I just know it is worth it.
What could be worth all of this?
Sweated my shirt long ago.
My trousers are worn out.
My hair and beard start to hinder me whilst walking.
Make me stumble and slow me down.
This long path in front of me.
And i am getting slower and slower.
Then i tripped and came to a halt.
Here I am now.
Kneeling and asking.
Is it really worth.
Then she took me in her arms and said:
“Finally you waited for me.”

Here’s to the …
Here’s to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes… the ones who see things differently — they’re not fond of rules… You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing you can’t do is ignore them because they change things… they push the human race forward, and while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do.
– Steve Jobs
Blink and it’s …
Blink and it’s gone.
A moment, a breath,
A Dance of the Mayflies.
Just enough…For a Lifetime.

You are the …
You are the call and I am the answer,
you are the wish, and I the fulfilment,
you are the night, and I the day.
What else?
It is perfect enough.
It is perfectly complete,
you and I,
what more – ?
– D. H. Lawrence
You have broken …
You have broken my heart.
But it wasn’t enough.
You have torn it and cut it to pieces.
