Existing


I am a person.

I am a person

no matter what you say.

I am a person

Realistically,  Spiritually, Scientifically existing.

I’m just existing. I’m just sitting here unattended, ignored, but existing.

 

It is amazing that in an infinite galaxy of other stars, just  existing,

you go unnoticed,

while you watch

All the other stars that are just like you

Afraid, wanting to hide.

And You watch them explode,

because they were  just  existing, waiting for their lives to happen.

They didn’t do anything with their existence and you want to do so much more.

But you doubt yourself,

And you just sit and exist, until you explode too.

But… what did you do?

After all,

All you did was exist.
