Far away from this world of love and hate,
Far across the unknown oceans that separate,
Into those skies that never end,
Lives infinity.
The greater infinity.
The unknown, the undefined,
Something beyond this life where we exist.

We shall never know,
We shall never understand,
We shall never be in touch,
With this genre of beauty.
For we know not how to live,
We know not how to see,
We are mere earthlings,
Enclosed in the little boxes where we breathe.

We think we know it all!
We believe we rule the world!
Alas!
This ruling,
The genius brains, the twenty-first century,
Loses its life, its importance,
When made to stand before,
The greater infinity.

There is a world beyond our world,
A Life larger than life,
Stories, more complex than ours combined.
We know nothing!
We are not the masters,
Not superior to anything!
'Cause,
          We breathe in the midst,
          Of a beautiful something…
          A fascinating, unknown,
          Undefined everything.
          An infinity beyond the sky,
          beyond the unknown oceans,
          An infinity far away from this world,
          An infinity beyond you and me…
