Particles suspended in endlessness coalesce, compress, driven to ignition
Gravity balanced with fusion creates illumination, boundless energy in motion
Clouds swirl, condense into worlds and colors hurled into orbits that curl
Round a small spark, a fragile ark embraced in a galactic arm's twirl
Time and chance become elements, the letters of a sentence, on sentience
A blur of words uniting a grand tale of cosmic currents
Soon, beneath the night, creatures stand upright, reign in the dark with fire bright
Wary of what lies in the unknown fringes beyond the edges of the light
Differences imagined create callousness in excess, an abscess, absent of cognition
Uncertainty mixed with suspicion creates misinformation, breeding false conclusions
Hate swells, a populace unwell, threatened with hell by those who sell
Their interpretation of how their nation and its aspirations are divinely compelled
Fire and stone become implements, weapons of reverence, of vengeance
In the names of gods now wielded with building violence
Soon, by forge's flames, bows and swords give way, guns and cannons adding to the fray
The future growing faint in a war of wrongs growing ever darker beneath the light of day
Our eras pass like moments beneath its constant presence
Around it, we revolve
Around it, we evolve
Always present, its incandescence
Reveals our darkest flaws
Our petty wars can't be seen from afar
Fighting over one speck among trillions of stars
All this brilliance, now used to tear the world apart
All that could have been, now just splinters and shards
By the building light of burning books, histories are erased word by word
Lessons learned to ash are turned Only the suffering of the future can be heard
As the fires wane, those who remain cast blame, and the cycle begins once again
If only we could find a break in the clouds before we meet another end
Our eras pass like moments beneath its constant presence
Around it, we revolve
Around it, we evolve
Always present, its incandescence
Reveals our darkest flaws
