Eternity

When the world sleeps, or
at least a part of it,
I watch the starlight drip
through the open pores
of the sky.
And that’s when I think
of the worlds beyond –
the interplay of truth and lies,
of shadows and light,
breathing life into theories
that cling to the mind,
of life beyond this, our world.
The finite and the infinite,
the eternal and the transitory,
fit themselves into boxes,
each taking its place in the universe.
And then it dawns on me –
There is a bit of each within us –
the real and the unreal,
the temporal and the eternal.
There is a bit of us
that will remain forever –
Like the truth that never fades.
