The Grand Scheme

in the grand scheme of things
Nothing is as it seems, 
nothing will stand 
the test of time,
the eons will grind, 
all will be worn to dust 
as nothing is forever 

forgotten in rust 
in the grand scheme of things 
we are nothing but a nanosecond 
sparks of life easy blown out like a candle 

in a vast vacuum of night 
the regions of forever 
and no one n nothing ever lasts 

nothing is as it is or deemed, 
seeing nothing in the coming void 
nothing will stand the test of eternity 

eons will grind all to carbon at last
the thing that stars of made

watching it drift through 
…these deathless hands!
