He stares at the sky…
On a dark starry night…
A simple reminder…
Of his insignificant plight…
That he is so small…
This tiny little dot…
And in the bigger picture…
His life matters not…
Just a piece of dust…
A miniscule speck…
Wandering this planet…
His mind a total wreck…
Driven to insanity…
Within the madness of it all…
As the heights he once scaled…
Became the distance he’d fall…
His life unravelling around him…
With Karma taking its grip…
Tearing apart his reality…
Lashing him with a whip…
Dragging him into Hell…
Submerging him in darkness…
Where everything he loved…
Became tainted with a sadness…
And forced him to face…
The things he had done…
Replaying every action…
Rewinding each sinful one…
Opening up his eyes…
To all of his selfish actions…
The hurt he had caused…
By chasing cheap distractions…
And submerging himself…
In the feeling they gave…
But he wasn’t invincible…
And now he tries to save…
His soul and his mind…
From being ripped apart…
Wishing he could simply…
Just return to the start…
