Leave Quietly

Settle in; When you've arrived
Do or Don't,
For it matters not.

'Twas the impact, of your life
On the scale, it's just a dot.

For who we are,
And what we see,
And what we do,
Won't prevail-

No wine to break,
No fireworks go off,
When you set off,
for sail.

Now I'll tell you,
Of our fair curse.

For “our dying does not”
I'm sad to say-

“Disturb the universe”
