~ love you but i've chosen darkness ~

there's no mystery in love, he said.
indeed, there isn't. when it comes, it's obvious. the rest is a miracle, leaving you with things to accept or deny, and admire.

though there is a risk.

that the butterflies in your belly will turn into moths

filling it with a lightless flutter

how long, my long lost

will the last day be?

i am the woman dancing to the post-punk band in der himmel über berlin, i am her voice, i am her everything, i am. she worked in a circus, i live in one.
and still i don't believe her when she's dancing. it's because she knows she's beautiful, she's thinking about it - the only difference between us. i never do, i only am, the most, when i dance. and dance is water, you must not think then. to think is to drive a rock across its stream.

es gibt noch andere sonnen, als die oben am himmel
