Lovecraftian Horror - Tribute To Hp Lovecraft

Come upon tomorrow,
you'll think back to this horror,
incomprehensible, feel sanity leaving you,
You'll see in a minute,
you can't kill it,
you're insignificant,
under the gaze of the universe you'll crumble,
not even sorrow, a single glance is insanity, 
so numb you can't use profanity,
hear them coming for you, 
a single thought and you'll perish,
a candle snuffed out in a vacuum,
its light so small, not even noticed when it vanished.
They're coming for you, if they knew you were there,
but you're too small;
they won't make you fall,
you'll do it for them, 
such unconscious insanity lingering below the surface,
ready to be exploited by an alien mind.
