Schach matt Check mate (german)

by nerdgirl

Die Liebe existiert nicht

Sie wurde blos erfunden um uns gluecklich zu machen

Krieg, gibt es nur in Filmen

und Geschichts Buecher

jedoch interessiert es keinen

wer wen, wann, wo getoetet hat

oder weshalb.

Wir sind doch all nur hier

um Gottes Spiel zu spielen.

Der Tod ist die Koenigen

und wir sind

Schach Matt


Love doesnt exist

it was made up to make us happy

War is only in movies and history books

But noone really cares who killed

who, when, where or why.

We are all just here

to play a part in Gods game

Death is the queen

and we are

check mate

      Goddess Jenna this is truly a wonderful piece. It carries you in a different direction. I cannot read German at all and it is nice to have a good interpreter and chess player. I have hard enough time with English. BWP... James... My computer is my chess partner and my wife will not play me. She hates to loss, I do too and that is why I don't let her win. Now that is a lie, if I let her win she knows and she hates that also. You see what thirty two years of marriage does to you, she reads my mind, as crazy as it is. May the poetry be with you... BWP... James...

        Thanks James.
        I love playing chess... unfortunately I dont have anyone to play with so I havent played in years. I was pretty good at some point.....

        reading your spouses mind is both a blessing and a curse sometimes.... Laughing

        I can still read my ex's thoughts... and he can mine too.... I guess some bonds stay even after seperation.

Interesting thoughts.

True..

But not true for everyone I have to say.

Would you die for Josh? that's love

Would give your last sandwich to a homeless person when you were hungry? That's love

Would you stay on a damn webcam for 4 months straight. Not doing sexual things(well not all the time., lol) just to share any moment with them. That's love

Do you cry when you see injustice and feel the need to do something... even if you can't? .. That's love

Remove love from sex and romance and that's true love.

Do you still talk to your friends like me... who get lost along the way... and ask for forgiveness.. And forgive them? That's love

Sure. It's all a fabrication of the human mind to feel connected to another human being(s). But it's a feeling none the less. With it's own unique set of documented chemical reactions that cause illogical thoughts of insanity sometime. But that's what separates us from the lower forms of life. The ability to create and be our own gods in our own minds to find our own peace sometimes. No matter how fleeting it may be.

This is only my opinion obviously. But does that make mine wrong? Because my comment doesn't make yours wrong. It means we are our own gods in our own minds creating our own worlds and set of rules that we FEEL... Not always live by... But FEEL.

Remember the philosophical debate... Are we just a dream in another beings dream.. Created in an imaginary world. To blink out of existence some day. But its still real to the people in the dream.

Oh
..
One more thing..
..
I love you.
.
LOL
Had to say it. I JUST HAD TO.

Hehe

    uum... didnt really expect a rant on this one from anyone.... but of course you always have something to say. Laughing

    Bilingual poetry is hard for me because i hate writing in german. So this started out as just ONE SENTENCE and then I just wrote whatever else came to mind and this is the outcome., Laughing

    Anyways... God in your own mind.. huh????

    If you ask me that sounds like blasphemy gone insane. I guess you can see it two different ways.... I have my "happy place"in my head just like anyone else but I dont say Im the God of that place. Yes, I came up with it but it was God who gave me the ability to imagine things... so its his world .. even if im the one who made it up. Do you know what i mean. Anyways.. I got josh crawling all over me being an idiot over here Laughing

Excellent insight and nice to see the translation from German to English.

The final line details our position in the world.

Well written and an enjoyable read.

Best,

Tamara
