Significantly Insignificant

A host of stars framed by the night
Sat staring down past me
I slowly looked up toward their light
Wondering what they see

To them a speck on a sphere                                      
Hanging in the sky
I asked them to look over here
In unison they asked why
                                  
They gaze across ten billion miles
Anywhere they look
Toward the end of endless aisles
Their intention I mistook

They weren't intent on looking here
With all there is to see
Across the heavens was their goal
At all there is to be
