Survival In Distance
And there she laid
In the vast void of universal eternity
Her hollow eyes staring into the vacancy
Reflecting
the internal abyss of fire
Residing within.
As she pondered the invisible
A questioning Gazing fixed on the stars and -
Rotating planets,
mesmerizing its transcending infinity
Requesting the stars and energy's guidance
On survival in this void.
For there mere existence Still
Mystically conveyed the survival secret was present
Fiercely she scanned
Glaring at the Suns descending into the horizons
Dissolving into the darkness
As the stars of secrets emerge
Perplexing her with its appearance
Limited to darkness.
And then the veiled entered her vision
telescopic planets of fire that remain mystery
the moon that was always partly hidden.
And then the wind came rushing
Caressing her hair
And just like that - she understood
The disappearing wind has whispered it to her.
For it forever remained
Far - but near
Like the horizons - which existence is solely in distance
Like the sun that will burn you if it was any closer
Like the moon who is always partly hidden
Like the stars of secret that only emerge in the dark
And like all things that come close
But not close enough
to make her own
Forever she remains a stranger
In her house of existence
For the universe in distance has taught her
To never bring it home
