The Choice
19.09.21
Prey upon the red-eyed nights
Bearing past and future flights
All those dreams I want to choose
Some tie the knot yet some the noose.
I learn to see the dreaming go
to notioning forgotten low
they make me wonder as to why
It’s never naught and ever high.

Dear Mamile,
Happy birthday to you! Are you having a good time? Someone must have brought you butter pretzels for breakfast. Preferably the ones from Sahnebeck, because they are world class. Every single one is sensationally delicious, in every respect. The pretzel arms are so thin that they crunch like no other when you take your first bite. The buttered belly is juicy and creamy in taste with a thin crispy crust on the outside. A real treat.
It was never a long way to the Sahnebeck. It only took four minutes to walk from the Storchen. So there was never a reason not to have a pretzel in the house, but it happened all the time. They were just too good back then and today they are heavenly.
My pretzels are not as good, no. But they are getting better. You would like my pretzels too, Mamile. I firmly believe that.
Sleep well, Mamile.
Missing you loads.
Wolfgang

Hold on to me as we go
As we roll down this unfamiliar road
And although this wave is stringing us along
Just know you’re not alone
‚Cause I’m gonna make this place your home
Settle down, it’ll all be clear
Don’t pay no mind to the demons
They fill you with fear
The trouble, it might drag you down
If you get lost, you can always be found
Just know you’re not alone
‚Cause I’m gonna make this place your home
Halt dich an mir fest, während wir gehen
Während wir diese unbekannte Straße entlang fahren
Und obwohl diese Welle uns mitreißt
Du sollst wissen, dass du nicht allein bist
Denn ich werde diesen Ort zu deinem Zuhause machen
Beruhige dich, es wird alles in Ordnung sein
Kümmere dich nicht um die Dämonen
Sie erfüllen dich mit Angst
Der Ärger, er könnte dich runterziehen
Wenn du verloren gehst, kannst du immer gefunden werden
Du musst nur wissen, dass du nicht allein bist
Denn ich werde diesen Ort zu deinem Zuhause machen
I have fond memories of smoking a cigarette on Brooklyn Bridge. Now I look forward to hugging my wife on Brooklyn Bridge.
