[Poem] Timo Schmitz: “Dark Ink”

Dark ink, dark as the coming night, Flows down this piece, with no delight, Scratches the paper and forming a river, While my emotions start to shiver. So many mem’ries I wanted to put inside, How much I fought for us, how you left me aside, That I can’t forget you, even after time has

[Poem] Timo Schmitz: “Thou art my sweetest seasonal memory” (2013)

Again – you are away, but still I think of you all the time, The sky is so gray without you, disconnected is our line, I worry about it and I miss your appeareance, the taste of a good wine, Forgotten shalt thou be, ‘cause you won’t be mine. Should I force myself to forget

[Poem] Timo Schmitz: “Do you remember the winter?” (2013)

Do you remember the winter, When I couldn’t get you out of my mind? Is it true that love makes blind? I know after all what she has done to me, That you can set me free. But what do you finally do in my life, It is sure that you can’t be my wife,

[Poem] Timo Schmitz: “Remember” (2013)

I know you will deny, But it ended with a lie, And you won’t be able to proof, What you have done to me, I never approved. I already went away, so I don’t care if you deny, I’ve already found out about your lie, And I won’t ask why, Because I know your reason.

[Poem] Timo Schmitz: “Two moments” (2013)

Two moments, two views,         united in a single view. When dreams seem to be reality, And reality seems to be a dream, When you wake up and find out, you just want to scream, But I hold you tight, in my dream, no more sorrow, But when I wake up I am all alone,

[Poem] Timo Schmitz: “Russian Girls” (2013)

This devushka so near, so hot the zhelanie, So many people around, in my head my zadanie, But when I see you I forget my mind, And when I hear you talk, it sounds so kind. And in my dreams, there is only you – ya mechtayu, And being with you is really what –

[Poem] Timo Schmitz: “Season doesn’t matter” (2013)

A corner, so lonely in the dust, The voices that the wind trusts, So fast coming near and happiness comes true, July, my heart still beats in passion for you. When I feel lonely I feel the mood of winter, Somehow warm, but in heart, the pain feels like a splinter, Don’t go away my

[Poem] Timo Schmitz: “Ocean of Love” (2013)

It doesn’t matter how far I dive, It doesn’t matter whether I will survive, I am afraid that I will drown, In the ocean of love. Every mountain I will climb for you, Every path I will go for you, And walk through the July, The vintner prepares the wine. After all your behavior, I

[Poem] Timo Schmitz: “Confusion” (2013)

I don’t know certainly the colors of spring, I’ve never known the diameter of an angel’s wing, I don’t know how fate decides our future, I don’t know why we love the people when we can’t be together. Who can know if there is anything that lasts forever? Who can know if we shall never
