This is my world, small as it is, <br />It is a planet by itself with very <br />Small moons, and tiny stars, <br />And so tiny, you cannot just <br />See me there, I am hiding, <br />But I still live here just the same, <br />Breathing atomic air, and drinking <br />Molecular waters, so you see, <br />How tiny I could be, how tiny <br />I could get, but this is my <br />Small happy world, my smile <br />My laughter so tiny, that you <br />Cannot hear, you cannot feel, <br /> <br />And that is your world as big <br />As the sun, with comets and <br />Meteors, and so big and so <br />Wide, with oceans and rivers, <br />And continents, and gigantic <br />Arctics, and snowy lands, and <br />We are then so different, and <br />With me, there is no problem, <br />I, in my small world, can fit <br />In yours, but you, you cannot <br />Fit in mine, that we must <br />Accept, I am a small world, <br />And you are a space still expanding, <br />Now, do you understand, <br /> why I hide? <br />why I shy away from you?<br /><br />RIC S.
