Envision It.

In a hollow home On a dark dark night Something came to roam In the glimpse of light Each step taunting Testing my senses Pitch black ever haunting What are my defences? A knife shines to the right My chest in my hand I straighten my sight Just a knife on the stand The stairs now twisting So was my mind "this is more than a feeling" I hear something...... Behind..... A voice of coarse nature Called down the hall Slurrs of ancient lost scripture I then drifted into a fall Deep space took ahold It had something to say After what it had told Life was never the same From that day on  the hole world was anew We are really all gone There is no me and you Just strains of existence And every strain ends Across a great distance Through Time and far lands How I long to be....., At the tip of the universe
