So many questions

Staring at the night sky
An emended expanse of possibility
As humans we know little about what’s up there
Each star represents a new beginning 
Something dying millions of years ago
A new life begins
Before our very eyes
They twinkle in the black sky
Amazing our minds and eyes
Making shapes in our heads
Imaging impossible possibilities 
We are brand new amongst these wonders
The majesty of our universe
Changes everyday 
Our eyes see no different

Many questions remain unanswered
How did this begin?
Long before life in our universe
Before the big bang
How did anything begin
How old is it
Questions that can never be answered
How are minds play games
Imagine what could of been 

Our minds are a mystery
How did evolution really happen
We claim to be a sophisticated species
But are we
We torture each other
Have complex feelings
And many many sicknesses and disorders
Is this sophistication 
Or what humans have done to each other 
If we are so brilliant why does so much harm exist
Why do countries need to invade and kill
We are a harmful species
But why?
