Life in Perspective

 

For when you feel alone.



Imagine a reality,

Where there are millions of stars,

Fusing elements as fuel,

Creating building blocks of reality,

Stars fuse carbon into oxygen,

Or detonate producing gold,

Yet He created each and every star,

Knowing all of their names,

And he stopped to take the time,

To know the beauty of your eyes.


There are planets with rings of ice,

Like crowns upon eternal queens,

There are moons with polymer rains,

Raindrops as big as golf balls,

Falling slowly like snow,

He knows each and every place,

Where ocean waves thunder underground,

Or lightning streaks through acid clouds,

Yet every pain you feel,

Is felt upon his heart.


Drivers stream by on the roads,

Chasing matters of consequence,

Too fast to see the birds in the trees,

To fast to hear the stories of others,

Dozens of homes hiding faces and souls,

Laughter or pain they cannot imagine,

Yet He sees the song of your life,

Music like colors before His eyes,

And when you feel you are most alone,

You are still held in His arms.


Standing on the border of infinity,

One may look out across forever,

For only the heart can truly see,

Perceiving that time is just an illusion,

Created by the blindness of our eyes,

So seeing a bird in flight,

Becomes a miraculous vision,

Yet in all of this and more,

What is most important to Him,

Is you.
