I've come to the outer limits Where the stars bleed away Melting into obscurity Fading into the deepest back An all consuming darkness I've meditated and pondered How I might move forward In the absence of light Without path or guide Into the infinite void ahead I sought to touch it To feel the inky black darkness Wash over my fingers I imagined it thick like paint Or perhaps far stranger Yet when I reached out to it I was blinded by light Scarcely could I adjust my eyes   But when I did I saw the nature The true nature of that void And it was only a thin veil
