Silver River

Asking why do we exist
Reaching out to find a meaning
Hoping to find so much more than this
We have been trying so hard for so long
Figuring out where we belong

Stretching out across the sky
We can see it from within
Imagine the size we can't even begin
Path of the birds it shines ever so bright
Our stellar home this milky white

In silver river we swim, infinitely small
Travelers of the current, who would love or care for us at all
Insignificant we are, like the light of just one star
But as the light travels this far
We might reach a friend, do some good things in the end
While silver river spins again

Spiraling down the path that we were meant to go
It might seem we're headed nowhere
But there are pages left that we can never know
Before they unfold, and the truth be told
And all the pieces are falling to place

In silver river...
