Infinite Space

Dear infinite space, I watch as darkness blossoms and obscures the light,
Glowing moon, diamond stars are the jewels that dress the night,
Thus crowning abyss with immerse delight.

I walk alone,  yet I am not,
Heaven, my heart has endlessly sought,
A dose of happiness I believed i bought,
Yet a dose of reality is what I got.

I cry in silence, yet i m still heard,
From poisoned truth i was not spared,
As life, my strength challenged and dared.

I m just a human with a deadline,
My sins in bold scripture hit the headline,
As my dna keeps procreating through my bloodline.

My naked body dominates the catwalk,
Pulsating desires my mind and thoughts stalk,
Inscribing my life with a white chalk,
To innocence i succumb and talk.

So i seek in you dear infinite space,
Superior in your wisdom, glazed in grace,
Of your existence never leaving a trace,
To one day reveal and show your face.
