Relativity

Compared to the vastness of Eternity,

The love I feel,

Equals but a lone grain of sand,

Abandoned in the desert of life.

 

Compared to the boundless universe,

The sorrow I feel,

Equals but a solitary drop of water,

Immersed in the ocean of time.

 

Compared to the fragile world within my soul,

My feelings of love and pain,

Equal the crushing power of a tidal wave,

Threatening to cease my existence.
