We Are As Nothing (In The Depth Of The Universe) Poem by Lodigiana Poetess

We Are As Nothing (In The Depth Of The Universe)

Rating: 5.0


When I feel weighed down with worries
and all the problems of the day surround me,
sometimes I need to stop and remember..
We are as nothing

To only see what is before me,
and feel what I can hear or touch or sense
is deceiving and tricks my mind into forgetting that..
We exist as nothing

From the depths of the universe we are captured.
Nothing more that a mote of dust
suspended in a sunbeam...
We seem as nothing

Those things that we allow to drive us to despair and sorrow.
The sadness we feel that seems unsurmountable
Looked at from a different perspective, we realise
We remain as nothing

So much left to discover, even though we are miniscule
within the observable Universe, the incomprehensibly sized cosmos.
We may never see the light from other galaxies, yet we know
that our blue planet is everything

COMMENTS OF THE POEM

In the greater journey of life we are but a picosecond here. We let our little problems keep us from life. We have to let our thoughts with our hearts soar out beyond this beautiful sapphire sphere sometimes to escape the misery. Another poem filled with truth. Thank you. 10
