Summum Bonum

Summum bonum exists because it must 
That is the only way the existence can last
Even if everything would be dust
Only way it is not swallowed by void of abyss is because bonum its light down will cast

But the abyss
Not heart of darkness is
Rather as long as Summum bonum is
It is a place of wonder that is part of the bliss

Summum bonum cannot be simple soul beyond abstract
Or even gates to beyond spiritual destiny in fact
But it is the void of abyss that is the second part and together they are intact
It is their boundlessness that their glory will attract 

What we should do is build the bridge
That connects with this sublime visage 
If we could there would be bliss and salvage
But frankly being only human I don’t know what would be bonum’s image
