Vacilando



Was ich habe, will ich nicht verlieren, aber
What I have, I do not want to lose, but 

wo ich bin will ich nicht bleiben, aber
where I am, I do not want to stay, but
die ich liebe will ich nicht verlassen, aber
those who I love, I don’t want to leave, but
die ich kenne will ich nicht mehr sehen, aber
those who I know, I do not want to see anymore, but 
wo ich lebe will ich nicht sterben, aber
where I live, I do not want to die,
wo ich sterbe, da will ich nicht hin
But where I die, there I don’t want to go,

bleiben will ich, wo ich nie gewesen bin.
I want to stay where I've never been.
 - Thomas Brasch





Check out this wonderful tumblr page:

"Wordstuck is a collection of different interesting words, mostly from other languages that do not have direct English translation. Some just sound lovely, or weird, while others are words we’ve felt or experienced, something we came to pass by everyday that we never been able to name, or something we never thought there exist words for them.
Launched June 8, 2013, Wordstuck inspires curious people who seek adventures in discovering words and languages around the world, use them in writings, or in conversations, a reference to be kept in memory or in a journal, or a reminder to name for something that happened or will happen in the future."
