As if
Do you think
that they'd miss you?
Do you think
that you'd never be replaced?
Do you think
that if you vanished,
if you faded away,
that they'd notice?
How high of an opinion
you have of yourself.
They wouldn't care.
Not really.
You think they love you?
Care about you?
As if.

Woow this is interesting...real questions raised...and to be honest sometimes you really feel you wouldnt matter whether you were here or gone...its like existense is in conflict with non-exsitence....nice thought provoking piece

Thought-provoking. This reminds me of a discussion in the 2014 movie "Men, Women, and Children" referring to Carl Sagan's "Pale Blue Dot" assertion. The well-known NASA scientist wrote of how we are all made of the same atoms which began the universe and will go on to form new creatures/structures. Therefore, we as human beings are meaningless in the overall scheme of things. Nothing we do will affect the rotation of the sun or spin of a galaxy. On another note, people in general tend to be so indifferent to each other - Have you seen their blank stares! - that it is a wonder anyone ever loves at all.
