Gardien des étoiles

I have watched eternity,
Since before the birth of time,
As a voyeur of creation,
and the protector of the void.

I have seen everything,
from the tiny specs of dust,
in the aftermath of cosmic annihilations,
to the creation of life,
and its eternal struggle in vain.

I am alone in this quest,
to wait out time,
and the other constructs,
and observe from a distance.

And I remain eternal,
watching one race conquer another,
and be conquered in-turn 
by yet a superior one.

With no desire to influence,
no action consequential,
no life worth saving,
no heaven worth living,
I witness it all.

The sentient call me,
'Gardien des étoiles'',
Guardian of the stars.
Mortals craving meaning,
Mystifying the unknown.

I am the all powerful,
for nothing has power over I,
I am your conscience,
a creation of another fool,
trapped in a time loop.

How dare you question my existence?,
For I was here, and I will be,
long after the end of time,
witnessing the birth of another.
