This Eternal Soul

I'm aware that the idea of eternity exists across the globe
Each with different forms, new angles, a myriad of hope
The truth though, we hope but we've no way of certainty
We linger in a practical, a limited world, the hard reality
Should we wonder, about a future, in a dangerous world
Are we trapped in the echoes and dust of our ancestors?
How can we ever hope with all our dreams unconfirmed?
I choose to believe, answering all of my fears with hope
There is nothing more I can do, I've no reason to distrust
This heart in me has a beat synchronized with the eternal
I have seen too much, I know there is more than this

“Life can only be understood backwards; but
it must be lived forwards.” Søren Kierkegaard
