It Is Enough Perhaps To Be A Small 'Someone

It is enough perhaps to be a small ‘someone’
One need not be the greatest
One need not be an immortal
But to not be nothing
Is also something-

It is enough perhaps to be a small ‘someone'-
To not be nothing
To be for a few only
A little ‘something’
A ‘small someone’ –
not just nothing at all.
