Sonder, Wonder, Asunder

Everybody, everywhere

Live lives far different from my own

Some are successful

Some are torturous

The lives of the many

The lives I cannot comprehend

Breaks the mind to try to comprehend

Life is beyond the mind


Everybody, everywhere lives differently from me

Interconnected through the internet,

Even if I think I know you,

I know only a fracture of you

Everyone, everybody has secrets

Some secrets go to the grave

Some destroy lives

Some destroy yourself


Everybody, everywhere has darkness within

A complexity of webs, lies, and darkness

Only the blissful few, are not tormented

The life inside the mind, is beyond understanding

The life of a friend, may seem happy

But tomorrow, they hang cold and lifeless

Everyone is complex

Everybody is unique


Everybody, everywhere are equal as humans

Everybody, however, do not have equal lives

Some lives do not matter to you,

And yet they matter to someone else

When mass tragedy happens, we all feel it

We are humans are connected,

Yet we try to separate from each other

Isolation, the key to desecration


Everybody, everywhere has good in them

Those who do not, are not connected

They are the outcast, we must attest to the enigmas

We must condemn the evil, we must be good

Those of us who feel empty

Must try and fill, the complexity of life

The complexity of everything,

Leads to nihilism


Everybody, everywhere lives mean nothing

Nothing matters in the end,

Everyone lives complex lives, who all will die

Nothing lasts forever, no one matters forever

Life is ever changing, and yet humans will always

Be connected through shared hardship,

Shared pain, shared hatred, shared humanity

And yet, life does not matter, nobody matters
