The vast energy present, will not always be so.
Once depleted, it will, forevermore, remain so.
A portion is utilized to fuel the heavenly cosmos,
Its nebulae, galaxies, stars, and planets.
Some is set aside to spin our own home, heat its core,
Shift its continents, and build up its storms.
Just a bit is used to create and maintain your very life.
Each heartbeat, every thought, and exhaled breath
Belonging to you, shortens the life of the universe.
Ensure, in every waking moment, your life is worth the price.
