Smug in our smallness
We look down from the heights,
And gaze up into an endless sky
Knowing only what we know
Seeing only what we see
Terrified by our smallness
We dare not look beyond
And refuse to look within
Fearing what we may see
And what might come to be.
Recognizing our smallness
We look and find comfort
Seeing what we don’t know
Knowing what we can’t see
Somehow finding love
in the darkness.
