You know Why
We
go to space
This
planet ain't
big enough
for the both of us
Some will stay behind
You know why
Heroic names too can be lost
Grand mementos to the God(s)
go up so we'll be drawn
but Gravity is |not inescapable>
You know why we sigh
when we look to the sky
instead of scream?
Why the villain dies
in every book
and movie
every dream?
If I seem
too intense, too obvious
it's simple
See
Life
it takes a toll
on a soul
but it pays
if you do it right
Pay for my time
with your smile
your gaze
You're amazing
Be brave, but not for me.
You know why
