7 billion people in the world

And we are only one

To the people who know us

We are everything

To the people we have never met

We are nothing

Compared to the universe

We are microscopic

Compared to small creatures

We are gargantuan

Each of us plays a unique role

We are a part of society

We leave footprints everywhere we go

We leave footprints in the ground

We leave footprints in people’s hearts

Our words cause a ripple effect

With everything we say

Our actions cause a chain reaction

With everything we do

Everything we touch

Is changed

For the better or for worse

We may not always realize

The effect we have

Not everyone gets recognition

But everyone creates an impact

Whether we know it

Or not

We create memories

And find discoveries

We may change the world for everyone

Or for one person

Or for ourselves

We don’t know everyone

Or their stories

We aren’t apart of everyone

Or their lives

In the end

When it is all over

We may be nothing to people across the world

But to one person

We may be everything

Who We Are
