Honestly, it's difficult to tell what this means. For example, does
"the moments are written with eternity" mean "eternity is the tool
used to write the moments", "the moments are written in the same place
as eternity", "the moments are written such that they will last an
eternity", or something else? Translation requires the original
material to be clear and precise.
