So many things happen in a day So many people cross your way Some for work, some for play Each of them has something to say With or without words they pay You back for something from yesterday. Some will move on, some will stay - Examine them with your intuition’s light ray Let your yea be yea and your nay be nay And never forget, with your heart, to pray. Che Chidi Chukwumerije Poems from the inner river

LOVERS AND OR FRIENDS
My friends are more important to me than my lovers. Lovers betray you, at some level, but friends stay loyal. True friends. The best lovers are also friends. The best friends don’t have to be lovers, don’t need to be lovers, to mean the world to you. Friendship beats everything else. There are some people you can be lovers with, but not friends. The moment the love affair ends, the friendship collapses, because it was inwardly empty. It was only sex, carnal comfort and perhaps some degree of emotional connection, but without reciprocal Depth. No sex is worth the best friendship. Nothing beats a person you share your truth with and the truth is safe with them, and they share their truth with you and it is safe with you. Share is the operational word. Safe is the magic word. It is safeness and trust. Respect, honesty and genuineness.

NICHT VERÄNDERBAR
Die Erde dreht sich Der Mensch ändert sich Das ist das einzige, Was unverändert bleibt. Che Chidi Chukwumerije Im Jahrzehnt der deutschen Dichtung
BAY OF HEART
There is always something to say And no one to say it to The heart is a deep wide bay Where stories and strangers sail into To quietly offload, sit and recuperate Locked in the soliloquy of the seeker The pain-cooked rebirth to elevate Phoenix back to Light in a world grown bleaker. Che Chidi Chukwumerije Poems from the inner rivero
UNSAGBAR
Vieles behalte ich für mich Denn für vieles gibt es keine Worte Worte haben die Eigenart, Die Wahrheit zu verfehlen, die zarte. Che Chidi Chukwumerije Im Jahrzehnt der deutschen Dichtung
HEALED BROKEN
It’s not as easy as you think
Some bones heal in their broken position
Yes, they don’t hurt anymore
But they will never again make the same old motion
And you will never again feel the former emotion.

Poems from the inner river
JUST THE TWO OF US
If it’s just the two of us, let it be just the two of us. Don’t believe what anyone from outside tells you.
If I open myself to you then, believe me, nobody knows me better than you do.
Trust your heart and trust me. The exclusive magic at the core of our love will see us through.
But if you fail to bring up the courage to believe, or if you yield to outside influence, you damage our super glue.

DENIED

EINFACH MACHEN
Machen ist sich wünschen die höhere Form, Oder die gröbere, und dem Macher die Norm. Tu es einfach und nimm hin die Rückwirkung, Sie ist Dein Lohn, Deiner Seele die Bereicherung. Che Chidi Chukwumerije Im Jahrzehnt der deutschen Dichtung
