Insight.
welcome to my home.
this is jana.
based in Zurich, Switzerland.
I started this blog back in April 2015.
It all first began with a simple writing space for me to discuss light stuff
– however this page has grown older with me and became heavier.
in a good way. I guess.
this is my room
for me
to drop chosen words on gray backgrounds,
to collect clouds,
to find some sense of introspection
and to mess with thoughts in both, in English and in German.
Writing to me means
diving into my creativity,
being raw,
reflecting profoundly.
It’s my way of dealing with shit
and an opportunity to let go.
Back when I first started I wrote here: «I have an obsession with poetry, books and sad songs. […] I admire the thought of true love. […] and I would say I am partly lost.»
I am still very much this person, but I am also really not anymore.
I hope you might find an ally in some of my thoughts.
Thank you for visiting.

Find Peonies momentarily
in their early morning’s full bloom,
revealing what lies within,
the layers fall delicately
as they burst open in true beauty.
Grey is all,
facets of a fading sun’s light,
shades of fractioned or dazzling blanks,
even painfully bright darknesses.
And a poet’s lips would never whisper
why her mind is filled with silver
and her heart is made of glass.
