The world is a place,
Where you could hear about something horrible,
And not bat an eye,
But this universe is so big,
Such a grand and vast expanse of nothingness,
That even if something is happening on the other side of the world,
It might as well be something on the other side of our street,
Since our world is so small,
Yet its all we think about,
When there is a whole galaxy waiting for us,
Why explore the world,
When all of it has been discovered,
But the galaxy is a place where there is nothing and everything waiting,
For one person to have that special idea,
That one person with the right amount of imagination and determination,
And the galaxy will wait for them,
It will wait forever for that explorer.
