So how did I get here
From Mannheim
Never seen again after birth
Via Munich
Real snow and close mountains
Via the Upper Rhine Lowlands
Always good natured
Via Teutoburg Forest
Where the summers stopped
Via Luneburg Heath
Beautifully purple
Via the amazing Ammerland
Via a Dursleyish Surrey
Via Munster
Bells and all
That is the route
That's just about it
Roughly spoken
And there's another route
Worth mentioning
Dependig on the way
I wish to remember it
From Piele to Pino to Adi
That is from all the Seasons via
Ashes to Ashes to
What I am is what I am
Edie to the core
Than another Pino
Rather Pierre
Who introduced me to
Cyrano de Bergerac
Short term though
Then
Lost in the woods
Finding Marquardt
More bear than dog
Self-absorbed like all bears
And after
A short escape route called
Laws of the Universe or
Nils sometimes
Trouble on a plate I say
Not to mention the Dragon
Just for the fun of it
And that's it with these
Not to forget
Mixing in Mo aka Sunny
Just kisses
And Bianca
Much more
And my greatest love
Of all times
Heix
Heartbreaking though
Just like my last
Infatuation only
A half French shining Eastern star
A little dream of What's Up
PiNK singing for her goddess
The route was the goal
Back then
That's all gone now
Since I prefer a city as my companion
Before all other relations
No treachery
No disappointments
No lies
We know each other so well
After twenty-eight years
And there is still lots to discover
I won't manage to learn everything
Before I go to ground
When she'll take my ashes
Silently
And so it should be
There should always be
Some secrets left
I remember the ending of
Hamam the movie
Frankfurt can be on a par
With Istanbul in many ways
I could be this woman
Alone with my city till the end
So cool
The problem is
I don't smoke

P.S.
I didn't mention my friends here
Nor family
No offence intended
Since of course
Love could never have too many faces!
