A Universal Mirage

Here alone I sit
 Wondering what it's all about
 Taking every little bit
 Trying to sort it out

 The world once was born
 Under some ingenuous being
 None of us are slightly torn
 We do without seeing

 When grabbing some time
 We have tried to break the seal
 Without one sensible rhyme
 it wraps us in its chill

 We hold life by strings
 That knot together without cause
 it constantly pulls with wings
 Doing so without pause
