Celestial bodies
obey the dictates of time.
Stars bow to entropy,
so why can’t I?
Adrift in the cosmos,
I struggle with faith.
Does my life have meaning

How can I comfort?
How can I save?
How can I burn so bright
that the glow won’t fade?

Try to envision

the inexorable hole
from which I won’t come back.
When I think of the dead,
they died for nothing at all.
Reminds me of my place
and how I’m so small.
