Comet's Lonely Journey

Born from origins unknown Speeding across the darkness The flame that ignited to guide me As my quest begins as I streak straight ahead Where it will take me? That is the question. As I kept blazing down a straight road To a destination that is unknown I learn that I am not the only light That lit up the dark that sparked curiosity. Galaxies that waltzed with one another Asteroid belts that spiraled in an endless loop Broken rocks that strayed from the path Pass by my sight with a quick hello When they come my way. From galaxies to worlds I've never seen Each planet was like an easter egg With its own special color pattern I ponder what mysteries it held. Sadly, I cannot stop to see its wonders As I am destined to wander straight ahead On an endless journey to a destination unknown In this cold, vast universe I find myself in. Is this how my story goes? Am I to only travel alone? To keep blazing down a straight line Until I break up into nothing? How I wished that was not my fate How I wish my journey held meaning How this lonely comet wished for a companion To journey with me through this endless universe.
