Who are we
Are we demons
Are we angels
Are we gods

No

If we were demons
We would forgive ourselves

If we were angels
We would forgive one another

If we were gods
We would know
Who we are

I have met
Monsters
In the shadows
Of my soul

In darkness
Known

Alive
I have never been
Alone

I love
I hold
Them close

And know
There is
No one
Who deserves no
Love

In 3D
I stand behind a tree
In 2D
The tree is a part of me
In 1D
There is nowhere else to be
In 4D
What else would I see?

Only darkness
All around
No sound

Only darkness
Shall remain
No pain

Only darkness
Fills the sky
No eyes

Only darkness
Shall enfold
No soul

Every day we send another million
Letters to the stars
Meaning them for one another
Always so surprised how far

All our light and sound can travel
Our radio and TV
Every day we throw another million
Bottles in the sea

Will the others read our messages
And learn about our ways?
Will they know us in the night?
Will they seek us in the day?

Do they go about their lives
Without curiosity
Never looking in the bottles they find
Floating in the sea?

Or perhaps they have already found
Our pretty little sphere
Maybe they already know
Maybe they're already here

For sometimes we send out letters
Hoping they will find and read
We have shown them the whole world
In a dandelion seed

Even if they never find us
Even if they cannot read
They will understand one thing about us:
Curiosity

Even if we never find them
Listening among the stars
We'll never stop sending messages
For that is who we are.
