I forget I’m human all the time…
That I have a voice,
And a say,
And although things won’t always go my way,
That I can speak out, and have a choice.
I forget I’m human all the time…
Yet, I’ve decided…
It’s okay.
It’s just a human body anyway;
And we’re more than where we’ve resided.
I forget I’m not human sometimes…
That I am a soul,
And not bone,
And it’s normal to feel lost and alone…
As we journey, mere sparks of a whole…
Universe.
