if the sun

were a millimeter closer

or farther away 

we would all burn

or freeze

to death.

in this world 

of such perfectly timed 

phenomena

how is it 

that one second

can sever 

the timeline 

and shatter my soul

if the sun

were a millimeter closer

or farther away

we would all burn

or freeze

to death.

in this world 

of such perfectly timed 

phenomena

how is it 

that one second

can sever 

the timeline 

and shatter my soul
