Up Close

"You are the universe expressing itself as a human for a little while."

i know you think you’re insignificant

just one person, after all

there’s at least seven billion others

who could be better

have it better

know better

and you’re so small

but i’ll let you in on a secret

one that your self-esteem ignores

you are a silver star

a tiny speck in a wide universe

truly a large ball of fire

colorful and profound

with a soul that burns

in passion

in rage

in beauty

in importance

to keep the darkness alight

up close

you are brightly blinding
