Our lives measured on the cosmic scale is a rather daunting concept.

Mere moments on the galaxy’s silent clock Our lives dwindle if we let them. Unless vivid memories rattle, shake, Shout their own voices Into the eternal darkness. I take what I was to balance what I am And multiply this sum with unknown remains. Mere moments ignite into amazement.
