The Big Picture
In the big picture,
nothing we do right now
matters.
It never did.
I guess that’s the way of life.
Ten years from now
no one will remember how you lost
your ten dollars
or who was your first love.
Ten decades from now,
No one will remember you.
We’re all like small particles floating
in endless space.
Nothing we do matters.
You're no different from anyone.
In the big picture, we're just small particles of dust
that no one cares about...
