Does it?

Does it ever unnerve you to think, at night, at home That despite the innumerable odds for life elsewhere We are, or to the extent of our knowledge, all alone? This I find, is nearly too much at times to bear Does it ever unnerve you to think, at night, in bed That despite the billions of people on this earth You rarely meet new people, because of all you left unsaid? Due to some misplaced, and wrong sense of self worth? Does it ever unnerve you to think, at dusk, at home That despite both the innumerable odds for life elsewhere And the billions of people on this earth, we still feel alone?
