The stars beg me to pose this question tonight
As I stand, dwarfed in an eternal light
Would I make any sense, even if I speak?
Will I be heard, for this reprieve I seek?
This celestial path filled with contrary views
Of which I regret, I chose few to choose
Though I gave it my all, it still seems unclear
I yet to find justification for this fear
As the fear startles, till I question life more
Why this torment for a mere humanities chore?
What else of life, can render such pain?
Beyond this humbling environment I remain
A scope of insight restricted, I collapse all hope
As I meander with dismal, trying to cope
This journey of confusion and untold belief
Wishing deep down, this truth I would never see.
