I was once human
I was once part of this earth
Breathing, walking, living
Just like everyone else.
A time came when I left
Bodies, stories, memories, lives
Behind
And went somewhere far away
From the mind of humans,
From the earth itself
Becoming nothing
Becoming everything
Becoming something
And then nothing again.
I was once human,
I dreamt of being a god
Of nothingness,
But then I would still be something
So I gave it up
While I was once human
I gave everything up
When I was nothing
I dreamt of nothing
I didn’t know I was
I knew I could be
Something
When I was human.
