Lass uns tiefer tauchen
als nur knapp unter die Oberfläche –
Let‘s go deeper. Wir brauchen
Mehr als harte oder emotionale Gespräche,
wir brauchen Handlungen,
keine höflichen Verhandlungen,
Dein Leben sagt Deine Wahrheit –
Mein Leben gibt Dir Klarheit –
Also lass uns mit unseren Taten tiefer tauchen.
Che Chidi Chukwumerije
Im Jahrzehnt der deutschen Dichtung
There is an anger that cannot be stopped Until it has burned its way through the heart And left a trail of cold ash and dropped Off shrivelled and twisted like abstract art On the canvas where memories are developed Negatives left behind for a seeker’s chart. Che Chidi Chukwumerije Poems from the inner river
Und wenn ich schlafe
wache ich wieder auf
Und wenn ich sterbe,
komme ich wieder
Und wenn ich wieder komme
mache ich weiter mit meinem Lauf
Liebe und Literatur,
Laufen und Lachen und Lieder.
Che Chidi Chukwumerije
Im Jahrzehnt der deutschen Dichtung
When you stop wanting to know everything,
You start knowing what to really want;
When you start wanting to grow into winning,
You start growing, focused, up and to the front.
Never forget the kind of people and things
That rejected you when you were nobody and nothing,
Your knowledge of them shall be the wings
That shall fly you over obstacles into your blessing.
Absorb the pain and become serious,
Trudge through the terrain no matter how tedious,
Be your true self and you’ll be mysterious,
And never return to all that was injurious.
Che Chidi Chukwumerije
Poems from the inner river
Es wird immer ruhiger in mitten des Lärms und irgendwann herrscht stilles Schweigen Denn Erinnerungen führen zum Nachdenken Nachdenken führt zu Erkenntnissen Und Erkenntnisse sind eigen. Sie beruhigen das Innenleben, helfen Dir, zu vergeben, und neu und Neues zu weben. Che Chidi Chukwumerije Im Jahrzehnt der deutschen Dichtung
The story is always told differently From how it really happened Because the story was experienced differently From how it really happened By everyone to whom it really happened Even while it really happened To everyone to whom it really happened Like it never really happened. Che Chidi Chukwumerije Poems from the inner river
Verzeihung. Ich Dir. Du mir. Wir uns. Empfindung des Tuns. Verzeihung. Che Chidi Chukwumerije Im Jahrzehnt der deutschen Dichtung
Change leads to more change Every trigger triggers another trigger When life wants to rearrange Your life and make it even bigger It uses sudden change and surprise Pain is an inconsequential by-product Or a tool, a school, but the real prize Is your next level waiting to be unlocked So embrace change that refuses To be refused and powers itself through And challenges you and confuses You and transforms you into a higher you. Che Chidi Chukwumerije Poems from the inner river
Veränderungen sind Verabredungen mit dem Schicksal. Überraschungen sind Abrechnungen und Rückzahlungen des Schicksals. Che Chidi Chukwumerije Im Jahrzehnt der Deutschen Dichtung
Dreams What do they mean? So many things happen in them - And yet nothing happened. So many things never happened in them And yet everything happens one day But I have forgotten Until Déjà vu. Che Chidi Chukwumerije Poems from the inner river
