Significant Insignificance


A walk through the park

Infinite mem’ries

Faded into time

 

Experience fades

All impermanent

Dimming forever

 

Too many people

Too tiny a world

Insignificant.

 

Too little time

Too large a creation

Insignificant.

 

And yet.

 

Born from the cosmos

Stardust forms bodies

Bodies form beings

 

Atoms have long danced

Danced so perfectly

To create a being

 

All existence

Lost to the vastness 

Too small to been seen

 

Gaze of the heavens

Turns never to you

They see all, yet nothing

 

Lacking a spotlight

None impede living

Living infinite

 

Empty, unfilled seats

Inhibit nothing

But rather, create

 

Create dreams come to life

Create fulfillment

All significant.
