Do we matter?

As humans, we like to sit up late into the night and watch the rain. We stare at the moon and the stars, listen to the sound of the world go by, and contemplate. About life, feelings, and emotions. But, sometimes we sit there. Observing, lost in time to watch the world go by. We wonder why even the stars have each other, when we are alone. The moon is just like us. Alone in the sky where no one understands him. We wonder, is this even real? Or are we just cogs turning in an old clock, unable to stop the passing of time? Our time on Earth is short. When you look back at it, will you wonder if you even mattered at all?
