If I had never been born
Would there be a space left empty
Waiting to be filled with a human form
If I wasn’t here
Would the world mourn?
This child’s life, a star of Capricorn
Would my Family
Miss the laughter of jokes never told
Look for someone, they can never enfold
Would my friends
Act on advice never passed
Who will they turn to when feeling downcast?
And my love
The one I found, who will love you now?
Will they kiss the same when you make the vow?
If I was never here
There’ll be no change in discoveries of anything epic
And definitely not missed in the world academic
So there is no reason
Why I am here, that I can see
Living this life of mundane ordinary
Yet there was the time
I helped a stranger who was in need, in pain
Though I’m sure others would have done the same
Maybe that’s why I am here
Not to live a life of fame and celebrity
Just to bestow one simple kind act of extraordinary
