Reality
In future times of time gone by
humanity reached for the sky.
In present times of history
our ancestors could never see
that future realms born of the past
were just like past and couldn't last.
With time so closely intertwined
it's not surprising we have dined
on stew of now and history
while future stays a mystery.
The moment now will always last
it shares the future and the past,
for it is now's reality
this moment's all there's meant to be.
The present moment’s never done
this time is shared by everyone
while future’s past can never be
the moment of reality.
