When You Die

~This poem came along when I realized that a single person's death really makes no difference in the grand scheme of things. Everything goes on as if you were never even there~


The sun still comes out

Warming the sand

The moon still shows

Lighting the land

When you die

.

The birds still sing

A beautiful song

Children still laugh

As if nothing is wrong

When you die

.

The Earth still spins

As it did before

Time still goes on

But you aren't there anymore

When you die
