What will we do when our sun is done burning
When the ocean's vaporize
When the air is unbreathable
Would we be prepared
Would we even be here
Could it be we are on a different planet
Maybe we've destroyed ourselves
Maybe God comes to save us
What will happen to our most beloved songs
The Gold, The Platinum, and Diamond Certified hits
The melodies, rhythm, words, and sounds that motivate, move, and cure
What about the The Last Supper, the Mona Lisa, or the Sleeping Venus
Will Starry Nights turn to red dawns
And Apollo 8 looking at a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam
Maybe we just blend in to the rest of the cosmos
And
Their photographs
Their first birthday
Their first step
Their graduation
Their marriage
Their birth
Their death
How could we even carry them beyond this point
And how can I forget
her voice
her smile
her touch
her laugh
her smell
her support
her beliefs
her ticks
her annoyance
Our first date
Our first everything
All that I've loved
It's gone
I'm gone
What could we take with us
What could we do, if anything
Maybe all meaning is lost, and it starts all over again.
