humans paint the galaxies; stars poured by the gods on a piece of dark, endless canvas. the nature talks about freckles and moles on a maiden's skin and how interesting connecting dots into intricate shapes is.
humans boast about love. all the mediocre melodies to woo, cupid unleashing arrows, and the cries written on minor scale; blacks and whites of the piano. the unexplainable look on one's eyes. things they left unrecorded thoughβ ones the studio of the universe releases an album of: motorbike roars as a boy speeds through countless others that are deemed insignificant, compared to the thought of his mom waiting at home.
for centuries and more centuries, the poets go on about emptiness. the caging abyss, they said, of sadness. a dark place. but seasons whisper the stark difference of breeze nibbling on your skin and of the dropping temperature of winter harshly piercing your senses like knives.
dancers waltz to the moonlight, reenacting silent screams and insanity. but withering flowers' petals got themselves caught up in a game of tag with their own kin.
it's funny how humans talk about the comparison (as i am doing right now) of the art we make and the art that is already there before us. when the universe tries again and again to teach us what kind of little majestic things we are, what kind of little majestic things surround us.
*(must say, we're quite dumb. unable to understand.)
alternatively titled 'little majestic things.' current title taken from adam levine's lost stars, give it a listen! i really like it and i think it's rather straight-forward?
