NOwhere in NOwhere

There was a sun
at midnight
When I wrote to you
and you wrote to me.
There was an east
and west
north
and south
you took me
to show around the world
to build your city in me.
There was NOwhere in NOwhere
I am a New Orleans poet

Hermann Hesse

Happy Birthday Hermann Hesse !
When I was in collage I read most of Hesse's books. That's where my education in life started. His books lead me to many other great authors. He really touched me with his writing and changed a lot in my life....He was a great man, a great writer and someone who was really longing for peace.. My favorite books are Demian, siddhartha and " narcissus and goldmund"......He was a great philosopher who wasn't afraid to state his mind.... intellectuals like him are rare these days...

ohne dich "Without You" by Hermann Hesse
Translated by James Wright

Mein Kissen schaut mich an zur Nacht
Leer wie ein Totenstein;
So bitter hat ich's nie gedacht,
Allein zu sein
Und nicht in deinem Haar gebettet sein!

Ich lieg allein im stillen Haus,
Die Ampel ausgetan,
Und strecke sacht die Hände aus,
Die deinen zu umfahn,
Und dränge leis den heißen Mund
Nach dir und küß mich matt und wund -
Und plötzlich bin ich aufgewacht
Und ringsum schweigt die kalte Nacht,
Der Stern im Fenster schimmert klar -
O du, wo ist dein blondes Haar,
Wo ist dein süßer Mund?

Nun trink ich Weh in jeder Lust
Und Gift in jedem Wein;
So bitter hat ich's nie gewußt,
Allein zu sein,
Allein und ohne dich zu sein!
Hermann Hesse (1913)
****
Without You

My Pillow gazes upon me at night
Empty as a gravestone;
I never thought it would be so bitter
To be alone,
Not to lie down asleep in your hair
I lie alone in a silent house,
The hanging lamp darkened,
And gently stretch out my hands
To gather in yours,
And softly press my warm mouth
Toward you, and kiss myself, exhausted and weak-
Then suddenly I'm awake
And all around me the cold night grows still.
The star in the window shines clearly-
Where is your blond hair,
Where your sweet mouth?

Now I drink pain in every delight
And poison in every wine;
I never knew it would be so bitter
To be alone,
Alone, without you
