our souls were once in its purest form
our hearts clean and shinning without bump
our skin radiant like the sun
we live with no burn

with wings we explore the spheres
flying weightless with no one to dare
we illuminate everywhere with our tiny lights
our glittering was created perfectly bright

if we had known
we would have said no
we wouldn’t have come to earth
living in bondage, slaves to death

we wouldn’t have chosen skin as an option
taking our eyes away from the temptation of the ocean
wouldn’t have signed up to be born
only to live for a while and mourn

we were never in the know that this was how it was going to be
only if we have looked before we leap
that humanity is a curse to existence
a regret of creation by his eminence
