Fireworks

In the end, what is the point

Are we not all just running against the clock

The anxiety of hearing the ticks and tocks of the clock knowing that those seconds of my life no longer exist

So what is the point

Why run around with hope and despair

Why chase our desires if the clock will tick anyway

The energy we put into our lives, what is it for

Could it all be one big waste

Does a firework not have a purpose

Could it be that the explosion of life be what you make of it

The brilliant blazon bright light of existence then fade to black canvas as the ashes fall from the heavens

On the time-scale of the universe we are all fireworks

Our moment to exist is so small and yet we can make the most beautiful of lights and the most thunderous of sounds

In the end, there is really only one point
