What Lies Beyond Us

Once the sun descends away

We are left with darkness

We are left with black nothingness

What we have when the sun has left

Is what always lies beyond us 

Empty space

Trillions of football fields full of emptiness

We are smaller than a grain of sand in this universe

Only one planet in the entire galaxy and beyond can sustain life

Only one little planet is inhabited by humans

Humans with thoughts, dreams, and futures

Nothing else lies beyond us besides emptiness

Why is that?

I love when poems have messages in them and let you think. This was truly beautiful

I've noticed that most of your poems these days had become quite philosophical, Megan. :) I hope one day you'll get your questions answered. Keep us updated. Keep writing! :x
