A universe divine & filled with so much,
Seen as splendor by some of us.
Do we alone, see it as such?
Looking up we search for purpose.

We feel, we think, we mold & create,
Each a few years until it's too late.
We live & breathe as our young through, us
Looking inward we search for purpose.

We yearn to flee amidst the stars,
To learn to be & know who we are.
Is the purpose to find there is none but us?
Looking near, we find it here, our purpose.
