In the silence of stars where shadows fold,
Whispers of cosmos through a vision foretold,
I wander, nameless, pass the velvet dark,
Tracing the void where forgotten fires spark.
The moon, a mirror of unwritten lore,
Spills cobalt secrets on the timeless shore.
Each wave, a question to the nature of truth,
Crashing and fading, dissolving all proof.

Reality rises, then shatters like foam,
Pulling back into depths where illusions roam.
What is real lingers just at the crest,
Then falls apart as if never expressed.
Above, the sky, a crypt of ancient thought,
Holds riddles the wise and fools have sought.
I watch as meteors, like fleeting years,
Draw trails of dust through silent, empty spheres.

Time here is neither measured nor felt,
Only the weight of truths we once knelt
Before, unknowing, when we dared to believe
The world was more than what it seems to perceive.
Yet in this stillness, I discern a flaw:
The stars are murmurs of a lawless law,
That nothing remains, not even the night,
But bends to the pull of a vanishing light.

And here, in the stillness, the secret is spun
I have been imagining, but I am the one.
