i will not give up

i will not give up
on being a human
on dreaming that we are good
that we can act out of love
that all of our carelessness
our cruelty
can be washed away again with warm arms and smiles
our selfish spirits can be saved again with our bodies strength

i will not give up that i can paint in the air
music that can save your soul
for a moment
or an hour
that i can dance myself back up to heaven again
that i can see love and stars in the eyes of all the people

i will not give up on
untying the knot of pain
the tangles of our hearts
pulling the stone out of my throat
so i can swallow the whole truth
and see god in the flowers of spring
