Life and the universe

5.

I am a snapshot of time.
The record of an existence.

You are a snapshot of time.
The record of an existence.

We are the fireflies in the dark.
No matter who or what existed before,
we are the expression of life in the universe
right now.

6.

There is no key
to the riddle of life.
Only the shocking awareness
of being alive.

7.

How quiet
would the universe be
without us?

Eons and eons of space-time.
Not a single whisper.
