yes or no|black or white|man or woman|gay or straight|good or bad|virgin or whore|right or wrong|our life is complicated enough|when classifying things we want it simple|is that wise or unwise|i’d say it’s neither|and both|

friendship-ish
do we choose our friends for what they are|or for what we want them to be|often we feel attracted to people that are similar to us|we are drawn to people that represent what we would like to be like|maybe we choose our friends for what we are|that is why it is kind of a shock if our friends don’t like each other|
addict-ish
sometimes it is very soft|sometimes it is so intense i can hardly bear it|because i am still sore from the last time|i like to enjoy it for hours|but even if i can only feel it for a few minutes it eases my pain|a whole day without it makes me feel sad and cold|it is the only therapy i need|i am addicted to sunlight|
grey-ish
in art class i learned that black and white are no colours|so what is grey|the child of everything and nothing|if white is pure and black is nihilistic|then grey is open to compromise|non-discriminatory|indecisive|and voracious|it looks so innocent and is easily overlooked|but its intentions are nothing less than to shatter our world picture|once you have experienced grey|you cannot truly go back to black or white|it is the loss of innocence|fall of mankind and enlightenment at the same time|how come they never told us about that in art class|
chaos-ish
why is there no plural form of chaos|there is chaos in my mind|chaos in my flat|chaos in the world surrounding me|if i can’t control it|i want to be at least able to count it|
truth-ish II
truth is a funny thing|we can lie without deceiving|we can deceive without lying|it is impossible to find THE truth|because it only exists in the plural form|
brood-ish
i like to think things through|there’s nothing wrong with that|but what happens when thinking becomes an end in itself|when it prevents me from acting|when it is just keeping me busy long enough to spare me the trouble of making a decision|when “i think, therefore i am” perversely turns into “i think, therefore i stop being”|i am not sure how this should influence my actions|but i’m sure i’ll think of something once i thought it through|
love-ish
one-sided love can be the worst but may be the most honest love there is|knowing that the loved person doesn’t love you back makes the relationship quite clear|love-wise|the question how deep does he/she love me just doesn’t occur|no insecureness at all|of course we pay the price for not being loved back|pain|just a few things are as honest as the words|i don’t love you|because if you truly do love, you would never say that you don’t|no lying|
