(from On Living)

This earth will cool down,
a star among all stars,
one of the tiniest,
I mean a grain of glitter in the bluevelvet,
I mean this huge world of ours.

This earth will cool down one day,
not even like a pile of ice
or like a dead cloud,
it will roll like an empty walnut
in the pure endless darkness.

You must feel the pain of this now,
You must feel the grief right now.
You must love this world so much
to be able to say "I lived"...
