I'm pretty, but I'm not beautiful. I sin, but I'm not the devil. I'm good, but I'm not an angel, she said.

"my love sleeps besides me -

in the faint light - I see his manly jaw

give away - and the mouth of his

boyhood returns

with a softness softer

its sensitiveness that trembling

in stillness

his eyes must have look out

wonderously from the cave of the little

boy - when the things he did not understand -

he forgot

but will he look like this when he is dead

oh unbearable fact inevitable

yet sooner would I rather his love die

than/or him?

the pain of his longing when he looks

at another

like an unfulfilment since the day

he was born.

And I in mericless pain

and with his pain of Longing -

when he looks at and loves another

like an unfulfilment of since the day

he was born -

we must endure

I more sadly because I can feel no joy"

Some of my scans of the book "Tapfer Lieben" (1)

Happy birthday,Marilyn Monroe!!!
