in the red sun death
that hangs in the dark 
horizon
there’s a personal
annihilation of consciousness
waiting for every single
one of us

and that terminal drive
isn’t going to be long enough
to finish what we have started

I promise

that when we get to the heart
of the universe where the titanic
death and birth of stars
warp the fabric of reality
if there’s a way to come back
to this little place in the dark
I’ll come back
and we will do this 
again
and
again
and 
again
because we’ve got too much
started to quit so soon
