Stop all the clocks. Tyrannosaurus Rex ist gegangen.

Ich bekomme ja fast jeden Tag Facebook-Erinnerungen angezeigt und schaue mir die auch immer an, also wirklich immer. Neulich habe ich da diese Erinnerung an einen wunderschönen Sonnenuntergangsspaziergang mit Rex und Jasmin in meinem alten Zuhause gekriegt, das war sooo herrlich an dem Abend in den Weinbergen.

Dieses Foto muss ich mir wohl beizeiten auch groß drucken lassen und aufhängen <333 Mein bester Bleps einfach <333

Und das war wohl ziemlich genau heute vor neun Jahren... ach, ach, ach, wenn ich doch nur einmal kurz die Zeit zurückdrehen könnte, denn an manches aus Rexis Junghundezeit erinnere ich mich gefühlt gar nicht mehr so intensiv... aber wie niedlich und klein war er bitte und wie anders hat er eigentlicha ausgesehen und überhaupt... </333

Heuer wäre es unser zehnter gemeinsamer Herbst gewesen. Ich vermisse dich jede Sekunde <3 Du hast den Herbst so geliebt.

"love is a raging flame

many waters cannot quench it

neither can all the floods come to drown it

i am lost

but even in the wildernress, i would know you" - "Dayspring", Anthony Oliveira

"i would harrow the field and stone of the world to find you

across inches and centuries

it's only death that's all

what is that to love" - "Dayspring", Anthony Oliveira

"wait

if this is the last

if this is the end

i don't know how to say goodbye to you

i only know this:

i will never love anyone anything

like you the same again" - Anthony Oliveira, "Dayspring"

"Hold on, hold on, I have to protest.

Do you think I would choose to live without you?"

But the spark.

but I live in a fifth one

which is your space

and your time." - Etel Adnan, "Five Senses for One Death"

like thread through a needle.

Everything I do is

stitched with its color." - W.S. Merwin
