We have grown
Along with our own shortcomings
But wherever we go
We take these shortcomings with us
And treat them even as important values…

Battlefield

 

We are our own battlefield

Not seeing, not hearing

Unfortunately, there are many people
Who close their eyes and ears
From the truth
Or twist it…

Injured pride

We are proud of what we know
Proud of what we have achieved
We boast with pride
Woe betide anyone who hurts that pride
We react hurt
We strike back
Without realising
That pride is a relative of our ego

When we put pride aside
We become humble
Begin to understand
What hurts us and why
It is a bitter medicine
To break through the armour of our pride

Are we ready for it?
Are we ready to look beyond our minds?
Instead of clinging to pride?

Attitude of defence and attack

For some, their defensiveness goes so far
That they can no longer accept anything else
Only hear their own voice

Some take on such an attitude of attack
That they overrule the voices of others
They are empty in their willingness to accept…

Like a snail

 

We lift the head
When we are pleased
But we withdraw head and heart
In our own house
When something opposes
Our “concepts” and ways

We anticipate fear
And build a wall of defence
Not to be hurt

Power game

 

 

There are always only a few people
Who decide over war and peace
The common people suffer
Mostly in the event
Of an escalation between nations

They are the pawns
Of a strategic power struggle…
