Eternal Mystery

a poem about the universe.

By who_we_are______Published 5 years ago 1 min read
(atoms shaped like a person)

Atoms bind in space & time

They rejoice in unity to dance in the energy,

to create the matter from which we are made.

As solid beings, we are bound together by these atoms

We are matter & energy, the product of a higher force.

Planets & their stars aligned to mold.

We were formed, by the formless force.

Yet what could govern this higher form?

That is bigger than us.

Does it look down on us?

Does it feel love or hate?

Solid minds can only wonder.

Though we will never know ,

what resides behind the scenes of our lives.

An eternal mystery, an infinite game.

One in which we are privileged to play,

before stepping off the stage.

But it wont last this twisted game,

one of hide & seek where we are doomed to never meet

with the thing that runs things behind these scenes.
