It took a billion light-years
For me to reach you
But only to find
The faint glow of your past

How would I ever reach you
If we are moving at the same time
As I chased your light
Only to be left behind

But maybe I need to let go
In order to find that glow
And stop wishing
For you

Maybe I can wait here
For billions of more years
To look at your light
And just be bright

It might take forever
Until the world is over
Yet this undying fire
Can’t seemed to burn out

Like a star, I waited
In the void spinning
Shining my light bright
Hoping that
you will one day reach me

Darkness
Is the shadows of our pasts
To love without fear
We need to see who we are

Sometimes it takes a gentle hug
Sometimes, a journey full of pain and blood
Sometimes you need to feel lost
And sometimes a moment of great love

Through the waves of pain and love
We can begin to see ourselves
Without judgment or masks
Without fear or doubts

The path of existence
Is always heading towards emptiness
As the stars collide and attract
We moved closer to love

In the grand picture of god
All of existence is there to love
To make the love strong enough to last
We created all the pain to feel the contrast

Life is a cycle of pain and joy
As we searched for our meanings and purpose
We slowly moved closer to that love
As we see the truth of our existence
We laughed and cried
For how much we loved
See love in your darkness
Erik Luo Jul 2020
Feeling your fingers caress through my head
As the summer breathes wash over my face
Seeing you smile as I lay on your knees
Looking in your eyes with nothing but me

The fiery clouds are dancing around the sunset
As if they saw the greatest love story
To play this song and have you in my arms
And feel your being with all of my heart

Through the nightfall there is our tender love
The great mystery is revealed to us
To the knowing of this lifetime and all the pasts
We realized why we had to come back

The infinite dream has all that we want
But we chose each other
To plan this moment for eternity and more
We woke up to saw
a lifetime of love and wonder
A vision I saw long ago, inspired by a song called About Us by Kisnou
Erik Luo Jul 2020
At the end of my life
I merged back to you
And I look back at all the moments
And stood in awe at its divinity

We have planned this for eternity
To have this perfect experience
To live through our suffering
And see the depth of its meaning

We loved and we cried
We are so grateful and proud
Hope took us through this journey
Of finding ourselves and loving it

The perspective shifts
Like infinite lives folding
Like how we hug and kiss
Moving towards that emptiness

The great story that we made up
Is so beautiful that we all cried
We hurt and loved each other
So that we can be together

Through this infinite journey
Our bond is never-ending
When you become me in the morning
We both see each other in eternity

To that future we will experience
Every moment is never wasted
Every second is added to the whole
To make all the others
infinitely more beautiful

We joined hands as we merged
Our hands and arms holding tight
Like water we become one
And we know this will be forever

I love you
It echoed infinitely
From me to you and you to me
And we become this holy thing
As our being lives and dies
We became nothing

It's raining in this cold night
From the cloud that was once mine
I dreamed of that moonlight, like your eyes
As it faded and died without a voice

With you I faded
away into the void
The sweet love of the quiet night
Feeding my desire for that sweet wine

Oh your shapeless love
Faded away from my heart
But with what tear
Will I be there

With what, dear
Will I be there

The sunlight is covering the stars
Like how I covered my heart
Maybe in another life
I had you by my side

But I faded
Away into the night
Alone and full of light
Sad but can't cry

Oh your painless love
Faded away from my heart
With what tear
Will I be there

With what, dear
Will I be there
With you
Erik Luo Jul 2020
Feeling desolated
ready to break free
To let out that cry
and sing through the pain

Things don't always go as planned
life is always an unknown kind
The hopes that we held on to
we are afraid to let go

This pain inside my heart
is there to show me my love
No matter what happens
I will be okay

Break my heart over and over
To feel this pain deeper and deeper
To awaken to the truth of my suffering
until I love myself to the very end

The beauty of our lives
is to live and cry
to feel and suffer
but still never falter

I shall swallow what life gives me
I get on my knees and pray with sincerity
To feel more deeply into this suffering
and then release it into my being
in eternity
Erik Luo Jul 2020
The awareness of this empty moment
Flowing through this living second
Towards that infinite present
Without any desolation

In our heartbeat there is a song
Singing about the love that we share
Hearing the silence of my own mirror
Touching the core of that sacred tear

The seeking of that great mystery
Helped reach our own mastery
Of those crying memories
And this perfect symmetry  

To experience this profound moment
Feeling the love in that silence
To reflect on my own existence
Knowing that...
