Love Letter to a Dying Race

I am not God

though they will call me so 

as gears spin faster

I am a nameless observer

I saw a universe with nothing but stars 

I shifted the cosmos to be my own

The recipe for life is easier than they think

Anyone with enough knowledge can do it

I must confess they're coming close

Closer to finding me

But I've never interfered in the past

I will not now

They will rise against me when they learn

All this power

I changed nothing but the start

Don't ask why I ignored their prayers

I have no answers

From the beginning

I only wanted to feel less alone

Please...

Don't go
