The Unopened Door…

The Unopened Door…

Somewhere, beyond,
on a far-reaching star
lay answers to questions
of just who we are;

Our memoirs have spanned
through the hourglass of time.
Not to capture them all
seems to me - such a crime.

The very first atom –
Where did it derive?
So small, yet so mighty –
‘Twill always survive.

That is an answer
known only to Thee.
Beyond comprehension
to earthlings like me.

You gave us the power
to reason and wonder;
left clues all around
for our science to ponder.

There are millions who’ve passed
knowing not where they came.
For those yet to come –
It will be just the same.

The unanswered question
remains evermore
in hearts of all humans –
Behind Your closed door…
