Rainer Maria RilkeEvery angel is terrifying.
Rainer Maria RilkeAll the soarings of my mind begin in my blood.
Rainer Maria RilkeO Lord, give each person his own personal death. / A thing that moves out of the same life he lived, / In which he had love, and intelligence, and trouble.
Rainer Maria RilkeO Stunden in der Kindheit,
da hinter den Figuren mehr als nur
Vergangnes war und vor uns nicht die Zukunft.

With their long sentences hung. Forest!

Rainer Maria RilkeTags: poetry
We discover that we do not know our role; we look for a mirror; we want to remove our make-up and take off what is false and real. But somewhere a piece of disguise that we forgot still sticks to us. A trace of exaggeration remains in our eyebrows; we do not notice that the corners of our mouth are bent. And so we walk around, a mockery and a mere half: neither having achieved being nor actors.
Rainer Maria RilkeYet, no matter how deeply I go down into myself, my God is dark, and like a webbing made of a hundred roots that drink in silence.
Rainer Maria RilkeTags: darkness
