think how small
all your worries are
compared to the rest
that lies beyond the stars.
humanity can be something
when we all try to be
at the center of our surroundings.
never wanting to be alone,
but hating company.
the far off heavens
lead a path
of dark loneliness.
didn't they tell you
all the stars shine
once they've already died?
just remember
you aren't here forever.
one day
it'll all blink away.
what'll you have to say then,
when your maker sees to your end.
hope for a god or reincarnation.
hope for something to show
that there's more besides this.
not a fear driven decision
to fill in a pew
that worships a religion
too late to save the soul.
just be happy
with what you got coming.
if there's nothing after this,
at least you had something before the end.
