Eternal

I am eternally colliding with my past. 

There is a temptation to escape the cycle. 

But in doing so, my mistakes would be permanent. 

I would rather continue with the risk of being trapped in the void. 

A void that is intended to be a curse-

But I am able to embrace the repetition. 

Because I am able to alter the past with every turn I make. 

If I were to experience the future-
 
I would have to face loneliness. 

And that would be permanent.
