Andreas Steinhöfel: Daniel zu lieben (To love Daniel)

Apr 8 1:04 ( 5 )
"That much I’ve learned: Love is a word only to be written in bloodred ink. Love drives you to do the strangest things. It makes you hand out rainbow-colored sweets, it makes you dance through streets in red shoes, and it lets you hack graves in paradise gardens till your hands bleed. Love causes deep wounds, but in its own particular way it also heals scars, provided you have faith in love and give it time to do so. I won’t touch my scars. I’m bound to get fresh wounds, even before the old ones have healed, and I will inflict wounds on other people. Every one of us carries a knife. Those are the rules, Paleiko."
