Everyone always says 

they feel small in the universe. 

The vastness  

of the starry sky 

shrinks us in comparison. 

However, I struggle. 

I cannot feel small. 

Call it conceit,  

but within me 

are feelings vast and endless. 

If so much is contained within me, 

how can I be small? 

Does this simply not make the universe  

that much larger in comparison? 

If we all contain multitudes, 

and the universe contains multitudes of us, 

it is not how small we are, 

but how large the universe.
