"Youth has its drawbacks -- because we don't see enough of the world to know enough about ourselves when we're young. There's something to be said for innocence and optimism." ~ Steve Wagenseller


I am…

A speck of dust

Floating

In the galaxy.


A single droplet of

Rain

Trying to reach the other side of an ocean.


The smallest cog

Of a complex mechanism.


A deer

Pushing my way through

A dense forest


Just another somebody, watching,

As the world continues spinning

Without me.
When it's over, what will it have been for?
When it's over,
What counts?
