Far, far away

On the edges of what is known

Is a strange place:

Your corner of the universe.

Tomorrow isn’t the day after today,

And 24 hours is more than a day.

Freak accidents occur on a regular basis

In your corner of the universe,

And from what you’ve shown me,

Promises don’t matter.

You just say one thing

And then go do another.

I can’t take much more

Of this strange way of life.

So keep living

In your corner of the universe,

But just remember

Actions speak louder than words

Everywhere else.
