aus aktuellem Anlass...

I pushed all my problems to the back of my mind
Then they surfaced in my dreams, vague on the light
I sweep all my issues to somewhere I can find
In hope that I'll forget but there's just so many times

Why can't I be strong and just confront all my fears?
When my fear is hurting you by being sincere
But how many more days can I run? How many years?
Emotions flooding and I was so soon and so clear

Crying for no reason, feel the tears roll down
I felt strong but am I breaking now?
Crying for no reason 'cause I buried it deep
I made promises I could not keep
'Cause I never faced all the pain I caused
Now the pain is hitting me full force

I pushed all my problems to the back of my brain
A darkness deep inside where I just can't find my way
How can I walk with a smile? Get on with my day
When I decieved myself pretending it's all okay
I tried my best to hold it all together, I know
The strings have worn away and now I'm all exposed
I try to hide it all away on top of the shelf
I can lie to everyone but not to myself

Crying for no reason feel the tears roll down
I felt strong but am I breaking now?
Crying for no reason 'cause I buried it deep
I made promises I could not keep
'Cause I never faced all the pain I caused
Now the pain is hitting me full force

Forgive me now 'cause I said that I'll be there for you, care for you
I let you down, I walked away
'Cause there were things I couldn't say to you, say to you
I'm breaking now

I burned some bridges down
There must be some way out
The voices speak so loud
Will you forgive me now?

I burned some bridges down
There must be some way out
The voices speak so loud
Will you forgive me now?

Crying for no reason, feel the tears roll down
I felt strong but am I breaking now?
Crying for no reason 'cause I buried it deep
I made promises I could not keep
And I never faced all the pain I caused
Now the pain is hitting me full force

hold fast to your dreams

Ich wünsche mir ein bisschen Sicherheit.

Ein bisschen immer-für-einander-da-sein, ein bisschen was-auch-passiert, ein bisschen Bedingungslosigkeit.

Ich wünschte mir Sicherheit.

Ich weiß, dass du dieser Mensch bist, der mir Sicherheit gibt, der Mensch, in dessen Augen ich die Wahrheit sehe, die hinter seinen Worten steckt.

Ich weiß, dass du es bist, der meine Hand nimmt und gleichzeitig mein Herz hält.

Kinder antworten auf die Frage "Was ist Liebe?"

“Love is when a girl puts on perfume and a boy puts on shaving cologne and they go out and smell each other.” - Karl, age 5

“Love is what makes you smile when you’re tired.” - Terri, age 4

“Love is when my mommy makes coffee for my daddy and she takes a sip before giving it to him, to make sure the taste is OK.” - Danny, age 7

“Love is when you tell a guy you like his shirt, then he wears it everyday.” - Noelle, age 7

someday...

... someone will walk into your life and make you realize

why it never worked out with someone else

sometimes, change is good

Niemand hat Angst vor den Höhen, sie haben Angst vor dem Fall.
Niemand hat Angst davor zu spielen, sie haben Angst zu verlieren.
Niemand hat Angst vor der Dunkelheit, sie haben Angst was sich in ihr verbirgt.

Niemand hat Angst vor „Ich liebe dich“, sie haben Angst vor der Antwort.

please forgive me....

Still feels like our first night together

Feels like the first kiss 

It's getting better baby

No one can better this

Still holding on, you're still the one

First time our eyes met

Same feeling I get

Only feels much stronger

Wanna love you longer

You still turn the fire on

so if you're feelin' lonely don't

you're the only one I ever want

I only wanna make it good

so if I love you a little more than I should

Please forgive me I know not what I do

Please forgive me I can't stop loving you

Don't deny me this pain I'm going through

Please forgive me I need you like I do

Please believe me every word I say is true

Please forgive me I can't stop loving you

Still feels like our best times are together

Feels like the first touch

Still getting closer baby

Can't get close enough

Still holding on you're still number one

I remember the smell of your skin

I remember everything

I remember all your moves

I remember you, yeah

I remember the nights, you know i still do

So if you're feeling lonely don't

You're the only one I ever want

I only want to make it good

So if I love you a little more than I should

Please forgive me I know not what I do

Please forgive me I can't stop loving you

Don't deny me this pain I'm going through

Please forgive me I need you like I do

Yeah, believe me every word I say is true

Please forgive me I can't stop loving you

The one thing I'm sure of, is the way we made love

The one thing I depend on, is for us to stay strong

With every word and every breath I'm prayin', it's why I'm saying

Please forgive me I know not what I do

Please forgive me I can't stop loving you

Don't deny me this pain I'm going through

Please forgive me if I need you like I do

babe, believe me every word I say is true

Please forgive me if I can't stop lovin' you

no, believe me I don't know what I do

Please forgive me if I can't stop loving you

Can't stop loving you

und diese eine Liebe soll ewig dauern....

Ich hab gelesen, das die genaue Herkunft des Brauches unklar ist. Der Ausgangspunkt ist sehr wahrscheinlich Italien:
Absolventen der Sanitätsakademie haben ihre Spindschlösser, an die Brückenlaterne der Milvischen Brücke in Rom, die über den Tiber führt gehängt, als Zeichen für ein erfolgreiches Berufsleben.
Dies wurden dann von den Verliebten Roms als Brauch übernommen.

Die Schlösser enthalten eine Beschriftung oder Gravur der Vornamen oder Initialen der Verliebten, weilweise mit Datum. Nach Befestigung des Schlosses wird üblicherweise der Schlüssel in das darunterfließende  Gewässer geworfen, mit dem Ausspruch "per sempre" ("für immer") 

In Deutschland gab es seitdem Spätsommer 2008 die ersten Liebesschlösser an der Kölner Hohenzollernbrücke.
Angebracht als Zeichen ihrer Liebe. Ewig wird sie halten, hoffen sie. 

Ein schöner Brauch und schmückt eine doch so triste Brücke ganz individuell. 

Ob es die Liebe ewig hält, wird man nur erfahren, wenn man selbst ein Schloss anbringt :)
