The U n i v e r s e

Written on

They say life is chaos

but I see patterns

in moments

when lips curve

in synchrony with babies

gurgling unknown wisdom

when tears compete

as farewell knocks

at doorsteps too soon

when hearts sigh at

fairytale endings far away

from reality so cruel

Zoom out

and I see a system

so set that no rules

can define how

The U n i v e r s e

works like clockwork

Night and day

so punctual

the sun and moon

so honest

to their courses

Stars supporting constellations

when they could shine solo

A celestial symphony

so beautiful

that words remain speechless

and songs go unsung

at the lips

leaving just wonder

twirling up from

corners undiscovered.
