Eternity

Nothing on this planet is eternal,
Yet people always run after power...
Are we suffering Eve’s cursed Apple?
The world’s a stage; everyone’s an actor.

They claim they know many things about life;
Money, ambition, success – is that it?
War and oppression are actions too rife…
Is greed or human instinct the culprit?

Alexander ruled the world; he died young.
Romeo loved Juliet; they became prey!
Has Homer left some of his tales unsung?
Sadly, we fail to grasp to this very day…

Neither love nor hate exists as eternity,
Life is fate’s puppet; that’s reality.
