Today I accept the things I cannot change  
For Paolo
I bear equally with you
the black permanent separation.
Why are you crying? Rather give me
your hand,
promise to come again in a dream.
You and I are a mountain of grief.
You and I will never meet on this earth.
If you could only send me at midnight
a greeting through the stars

А́нна Ахма́това

I'm reading this book by John Berger and he cited this poem. I love her already. I'm disappointed I only learned of her now.

Alright, I guess. I get by... I: Can you speak German too? I remember you can speak a lot of languages!

AND OH, I am so INLOVE with your profile pic!

I understand it very well :)
How is your German coming along?

Gah, I know! It's from Twilight. I know everybody HATES that movie and book, but I have fallen head over heels in love with it.

You're awesome! I think I can understand better than I can speak. You know the pronunciation still needs more getting used to.

I meant your Profile picS although this icon is okay. :) I like the texture.

Ah right, thanks anyhow :)

Well, it's that way with every language - just takes some time. :)

The sad ones are usually the beautiful ones. :( You can browse my poetry tag! Sometimes I post my fave poems here so I wont forget.
