Life's Nuance

We fear death
As if we've ever really lived
Long enough
To know the difference
Stars burn out
Because they give too much light
To those who never look up
I hate how
The sight of you
Can still make the air feel warmer
Even in fall
We spend our lives
Trying to become someone
Worth remembering
And forget
How to simply be
We chase meaning
Like its hiding somewhere out there,
When maybe its just
The shadow cast
By our own wanting
