Pathos

easier than seems
getting lost within our dreams
is this what it means
to exist on this planet
bit more conscious than granite

the fear of being
where there's no guaranteeing
things we're believing
like the gods in the heavens
evil is caused by devils

amid the chaos
hold tight what is dear to most
entertain old ghosts
quickly choosing not to see
all that is or soon will be

completely  reject
our universal connect
base human concept
fabricate different course
deny coming from the source

bound to each other
'til being pulled asunder
by the next number
just cosmic dust in the sky
we exist until we die

children of the stars
sometimes forget what we are
have evolved this far
unthinking spin through cosmos
truth turning into pathos
