paradox ...
I am a wandering soul A flower
rootless, landless
I crying in the night dying
And dying of thirst in the desert ... And I Am
'm Not
I'm a heart without God
A bird without wings and without
sky I'm looking in all places and found only
crumbs salt ...
I am and am not
I am a child of nothingness A
be lifeless and light
I fell into a chasm
And drown myself in tears ... river
I Am and am not
I am a molecule of the universe
A kernel without substance and without recollection
I fancy swirls
sea And the wind makes me dizzy pace ... And I Am
'm Not
I am a register on the earth without a foundation
garden and childless
I cry tears of war
And mud me back my torment ... And I Am
'm Not
I am the storm and rain
A warrior without armor and without weapons
I fall at the foot of the enemy
And beg me off of his blade ...
I am and am not
I am and am not
A child, a woman, a man
Without life without death,
May God forgive me!
I do not know, Who I am ...
Where I come from ... Where I
... will
