TO BE OR NOT TO BE

 

That is (now) the question.
To be or not to be?
What kind of question is this?
All of you who cherish
one and all
only
this depth,
take a trip sometime
across the universe.

 

Do you know, that
they haven’t found an end
to the universe.
But depth is since ever
defined,
measured and
set onto
firm ground.

 

I won’t go
under water,
that I don’t wet my wings.

Of course to be.
Be better with every day,
more daring and clever,
more penetrating and beautiful,
To be someone or rather not be at all.
To be no one is less that not being.
To be or not to be?

 

To not be.
Not to risk.
Not to want.
Not to know.
Not to hurt.
To not be.

 

To be or not to be?
Perhaps to forget.
Break through your life.
To kill oneself?
And to leave?
What kind of question is this?
To kill oneself?
Is not being the same as killing oneself?
Whom to kill?
With whom to depart
To be who if not to be?
Be who if to be?
Be.
Be someone!
Be you.
To be you.
To be true.
To beat to beat to beat…

 

My song doesn`t go
into the depths
too many do that already

 

My song goes
into the sky
over the plains
across the universe.
