The U n i v e r s e
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.
