I am not a hero,
who manages everything without problems
And I am not an angel
because only he who is without sin
keeps his wings and stays in heaven
I am not a god
because many say
there is only one
where once there were many
one at the wheel
who keeps it all going
one head
for one crown
for one kingdom
but that is not me
I am not an animal
for I am aware
And I am neither water
nor stone nor earth nor air
But if I am human
where is my connection
the bond to all others of my kind
the fear of darkness
the feeling of warmth
the beat of my own heart
But if I am human
who can I be
who cannot exist yet
what should I be
what could not yet become
And if I am not human
what is left to be?
