Questioning the grays in greens!!

Sitting in the middle of nature
let me greenify my thought
Am I still his creature
or am I already bought?

Don't know whats's fast
the pen or the cry
the suffocation is vast
the world is dry.

Do I want the world to leave me
or shall I leave the world
was it too hard being me
or was 'I' a bit too curled?

Coming to terms with fancy ones
being my own new host
taking them as the only ones
the real feels lost.

Is it the realization phase
that he once spoke about
neither deep look nor empty gaze
its none - without a doubt.

Outside its not raining
but tears are falling from my eyes
come Oh God! start draining
feel the pain above the skies.

Be with me, make me good!
come Vivan, help me be
let your smiles be my food
make me happy and let me flee!

Quick Blick: What was that??

Hi guys

I came across this beautiful poem by the German poet Erich Fried, who loved to experiment with langauge..

Happy reading!!

Was war das?

Ohne dich sein
ganz ohne dich

und langsam
zu vergessen beginnen
wie es mit dir war
ganz mit dir

und dann halb
halb mit und halb ohne

und ganz zuletzt
ganz ohne


Erich Fried

          What was that?

          Being without you
          totally without you
         
          and slowly
          starting to forget
          how it was to be with you
          totally with you
         
          and then half
          half with and half without
         
          and finally
          totally without
