What is Real, What is Not?

Sometimes our greatest influence
Comes from what might not exist
Yet, we believe…

We are captivated by the light of a star
that saw its death before Time.

Time
A figment of our imagination,
And yet it is the master control
Of our existence.

“I Love You”
— Mere words…
And yet its power rivals all
That which is solid,
Which we can see
And taste
And touch.

So…
What is Real
And what is not?
