Infinity
A never-ending tale.
Faster than greased lightning
In flames, I shoot on by
Then merge into the universe
And I will never die.
Nights of lights that disappear
Systemic shooting stars
Fast and vast and fathomless
Past Jupiter and Mars.
I’m on my way and couldn’t stay
You see, I’m infinite.
On the wing, you hear me sing
On my flight into the night.
If you blink or stop and think
Moments fly away
The milky way is melting,
I knew she’d never stay.
My magic is immeasurable
I’m a never-ending tale
Ask me to come again
I’ve never been for sale.
In between the banks and boundaries
Still as polished glass
Like shadows through a twilight land
I watch the heavens pass.
Far past bright city lights
Where the air is crystal clear
Stars splash like diamonds
And seem so very near.
Mysteries surround my mind.
Answers are incalculable
Infinite and out of sight
Raiments of dishabille.
