S P A C E AND ME
S P A C E AND ME
In the seas of seas swirling in my mind
I find myself alone in an ocean of space
Nothing but void surrounds me
As far as my soul can see
Can our life’s breath be the soul of it all?
Existence, if we breathe we exist
Extinction if we don’t
Breathing is all there is, all else is just marking time
Here, there, everywhere
Nothing exists but my breath
Mine being the only one
Maybe the only one that matters
In this universe of nothing but dissolute and devoid space.
The dark between the emptiness of space
More scarier than Man’s madness
Dumber than men’s needs
More demanding than men’s desires
Expect more, infinitely more
The dark may be dark
But it has seen the light
Inside men’s breasts
His goodness always in constant fights with death
He struggles within himself
Fighting with his sacred brother, Evil
They brawl to the end … hopefully, someday
No one knows why but they continue the chaos ad infinitum
As I struggle with my devils in dark space
I swim toward the light in the deep dark
Not seeing demons but knowing they exist
I swim and I swim hoping that at last with hope
The light is there shining for me.
