I’m human
I’m human;
I wear my skin
upon my bones
to cover my soul.
I’m human;
I plant ideas in my head
and nourish my imagination
to recreate the world.
I’m human;
I learn from my past
the history etched in my heart
to take me a step further.
I’m human;
I touch tenderly
the hearts of my dearest
to cherish love.
I’m human;
I’m everywhere,
Wingless; yet always in flight,
burrow the earth and sail the seas.
