Being human is one of the closest things we share,
Countless cities and towns, born from past to present’s care.
A noon train bound for an unknown space,
A taxi picking up strangers, each with their own chase.

Pause a while, observe with eyes that see,
Simple folks finding soulmates, a beautiful decree.
In the flow of days, we miss life’s true grace,
Our reality, a fleeting moment, a small life’s embrace.

Gaze, and you’ll see how small we truly appear,
In a universe vast, with mysteries near and clear.
Microscopic beings on a planet so green,
A wonder in itself, a sight to be seen.

Among the billions, one person stands apart,
Binding your world, a symphony of the heart.
Finding that person, a gift so rare,
A connection that’s precious, beyond compare.

Earth’s weathered skin, a canvas of beauty,
A history of ages, a tale of duty.
The moon and sun, they dance, they fight,
A cosmic ballet, in the vast expanse of night.

Would I liken the world to myself? I’d take care,
Lest I take for granted, the love we should share.
For as a small being, in a universe so wide,
I’m part of this journey, with life as my guide.

A world so enchanting, yet often unseen,
We neglect its wonders, its valleys so green.
A home crafted for us, with tender grace,
Yet, sometimes, we mar it, leaving a trace.

This world bears scars, nature’s tapestry,
Rivers flowing like blood, into an endless sea.
The land, a scab, its colors and bumps,
And the sky above, where stars gleam in clumps.

Stars like curious children, they hang in the night,
The moon, a beacon, casting gentle light.
The sun, like a father, warming our days,
Nature’s embrace, in countless ways.

Humans are beautiful, yet nature’s art,
Far surpasses our creations, igniting the heart.
Our souls nestle beneath the soil so deep,
Yearning to be touched, a connection to keep.

As the earth meets sun and moon’s embrace,
A cosmic dance, love’s sweet grace.
The earth, a daughter, the sun, a father’s care,
The moon, a mother, in the night’s gentle air.

Destined to meet, souls entwined in fate,
Soulmates, a concept that’s never too late.
Let our hearts meld, minds intertwine,
Seeking a love so rare, like a treasured wine.

This world, so vast, a beauty to find,
Gentle and kind, a haven for humankind.
A dream of being the world or the moon,
A desire to be seen, to be known, to swoon.

A life unexplored, a canvas untouched,
Stars falling like rain, feelings so lush.
In the realm of emotions, we find our place,
Where beauty and wonder forever embrace.
