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 spaces of time,
Not capturing all seems
To me - a great 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.
Ye gave us the power
To reason and doubt;
Left clues all around us
For science to tout.
There’re 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 Thy closed door…
