Es ist fast zu viel Es erfüllt meine Brust Mein Herz ist zum bersten voll Lust. Frust. Verlust. - Lust aufs Leben Frust, Herzbeben Verlust vergeben Unbewusst Und dennoch selbstbewusst. Che Chidi Chukwumerije Im Jahrzehnt der deutschen Dichtung

WITHOUT A TRACE
There was once a person I once knew her for a short while I don’t know what happened to her Or who she became or what lifestyle I have no idea where she is now I never discovered where she went to Or who she mixed herself up with, if any If she still exists, what she’s going through But she made my heart childlike Before she suddenly disappeared Without a trace - I pray to God, Who knows it all, To always be with her wherever she is And give her protection, progress and peace And guide her to a beautiful place Full of flowers, true love, honesty and bliss. Che Chidi Chukwumerije Poems from the inner river
ZU SCHMERZVOLL
Stimmen im Hintergrund Erinnerungen im Vordergrund - Freunde spielen und lachen und merken dein Schweigen nicht - Du erinnerst Dich an Sachen zu schmerzvoll für jedes Gedicht. Che Chidi Chukwumerije Im Jahrzehnt der deutschen Dichtung
PEOPLE WHO LOVE YOU
People who love you, Hurt on account of you. But, for some reason, It is those who don’t care That you’re always pleasing And trying to keep near. I wish you so well If I were a wishing well You could daily draw And daily drink to your fill And when you withdraw The forest becomes still. Che Chidi Chukwumerije Poems from the inner river
VERTRAUTES SCHWEIGEN
Manchmal ist es so laut
Aber hier unter meiner Haut
Ist das Schweigen mir vertraut
Teile Deine Augen mit mir
Ich teile mein Schweigen mit Dir
Meine Empfindung und mein Gespür.
Che Chidi Chukwumerije

THE LOUD CROWD
The loud crowd Is soft to my heart Their warmth is gold When they smile they hold My heart with love untold In their family fold. Good people don’t need To be perfect to lead - Their goodness leads you home. Che Chidi Chukwumerije Poems from the inner river
WAHRHEIT ODER PFLICHT
Manche folgen nur materiellem Erfolg; Wenn solche in Deinem Leben erscheinen, werde wachsam. Silber und Gold ziehen das Niedrige an. Zu den Deinen darfst Du solche niemals zählen. Lasse lieber die herein, die Wahrheit sagen, egal ob sie Dir schmeckt oder nicht; Die Dich lesen ohne darnach zu fragen, die Dir stehen bei Wahrheit und Pflicht. Che Chidi Chukwumerije Im Jahrzehnt der deutschen Dichtung
FOR INTIMACY
Attraction is not enough Seduction is not enough Arousal is not enough Being turned on is not enough Being in the mood is not enough Horniness is not enough Boredom is not enough Playfulness is not enough Liking a lot is not enough Friendship is not enough A craving need is not enough Curiosity is not enough Propensity is not enough And even love is not enough Not any longer - I need the deepest inner feeling That’s compatible and stronger In sync with spiritual healing. Che Chidi Chukwumerije Poems from the inner river
DIE BLÄTTER LESEN
Die Blätter lesen das Wetter besser als die Menschen einander innerlich lauschen und fein empfinden wie Charakterzüge verschwinden und Seelen sich verändern im Schritttempo dahin schlendern hinein in eine Persönlichkeit mit wenig oder gar keine Ähnlichkeit zu der Natur der Vergangenheit. Che Chidi Chukwumerije Im Jahrzehnt der deutschen Dichtung
WRONG AND RIGHT
How can something so strong be so wrong? Go so wrong? We don’t belong to our emotions, they belong to us, but our devotions are more accurate and honest, what we long for the strongest. Pain brings so much blessing to every soul that learns its lesson and undergoes transformation, maturation and the realisation that it wasn’t wrong after all, it was a strong and jarring Call to wake up before you fall.
